You should always use a scale, I happen to use both, a beam and a digital. My digital is a Cabela's 1500 and is I believe a Lyman 1500. The quick readings of the digital are nice and I compare it to the beam.
The only I see is that the digital will not always come back to 0.00 in grs. Sometimes it will be 0.01 or 0.02 and I have to tare it again. Don't know why that happens.
