[QUOTE="338winmag, post: 531248, member: 29912"] My reloading room is a very clean, quiet, no moving air walk in closet with temperature same as room temperature of around 68 degrees. Light bulbs are correct non affeting light bulbs. 1. Calibrated scales 2. Weighed the pan which was 59.2, cleared the scales 3. Waited 7 minutes or so and started dispensing 4. After 5-6 dispensed throws, I dispensed a 7th throw. Looked at grains at the end of the tube and made note how they looked just in case a few fell after I walked away. Weight was at 55.0 grains exactly. Walked away for 15+ minutes. 5. Came back and weight was at 55.4. 6. I lifted pan and noticed uncleared weight was now at 58.X 7. Took RCBS 5-0-5 scales out and measured powder and found it to be as exact to 55 grains as possible. This is what is confusing. If my powder throw is still exact, how can pan weight change in midstream? The post above me mentioned that he noticed his uncleared weight had changed from what it originally scaled at in the beginning. I was pointing out that I have noticed that once or twice now. WhenI see this, I immediately turn power off and start fresh with a new calibration. I am working on some loads this afternoon and will see if this happens again. Thanks for the reply [/QUOTE]
