Dont have your cell phone sitting on the reloading bench or any where close as it can cause problems as well as a stryofoam cup(Static electricity, Especially in the winter I have a few dryer sheets close by to help with that), the flourecent lighting is a real killer if hanging too low.

I have a RCBS beam scale that I will check my electronic scales with but other than that I have two low end RCBS electronic scales that work great for me that I use 99% of the time.

I picked one of them lee powder measures up at a flea market for 10 bux and it is nice. One question for you guys how close to you run your accuracy loads in powder?  Currently i trickle every charge into an 505 beam scale

+ 1  That's prezactly what I do.

If I was feeding an AR etc. I'd likely go to some kind of automatic powder charge thrower, but precision accuracy is my prime concern and I don't shoot huge volumes.

I broke down and spent a bunch of money last week.  I upgraded ALL my reloading "stuff", Dillon progressiveloader, Dillon tumbler, Dillon digital calipers, shell plates, you name it I bought it.  But most of all I'm liking the digital scale.  It has a specially designed cover that removes any static electricity thus eliminating inaccurate readings due to static electricity build up.  And to top things off I moved my reloading bench from the garage into the house.  Really made my wife shout with joy but it was just to hot out there. 
When they come for mine they better bring theirs
