Is this accurate for grain weighing of 22lr in sorting bulk or non-bulk ammo whether 40gr or 36gr for obtaining better accuracy placement in target shooting?

For sorting non-bulk (piece by piece) of 22 lr (or any bullet), then Yes. Scale measures to .2 grain. I sort bullets after loading by total weight, sometimes. For bulk sorting, probably not, as the scale has a limited max weight and a small weighing area.

this machine can weight even a piece of popcorn with 100% accuracy. In my case I use this for medications on birds. sometimes i need to weight 0.08 gr. to add in water and so.

I don't know what your talking about, but this scale has always stayed in calibration. It'll accurately weigh up to 100 grams within 0.00g. It weighs in grams to 2 decimal places.

I affixed this to my savage .270 and I have had no problems with it even with the larger 150 grain rounds. Still holds true.

Ours was a .22. It is incredibly accurate. We were able to shoot quarter sized groups of five at 10 meters.

I just went out to the garage and grabbed three bullets. They were +/- .1 grain from an average of 125 grains. These particular bullets were also lubricated using alox at the time of weigh in. Hope this helps!

I found it to be inaccurate regardless of how many pellets I shot through it. I ended up returning it.

I have only used gamo pellets. They work very well and are accurate. I use the heavy ones.

I have used it to sight by 30-30, 30-06 and 270 and see no reason that it would not work well for a shot gun if you are using your shot gun with slugs where you would need more accurate sighting than if you are using shot shells. I have used it completely without additional weights and have been very satisfied especially considering the price.

20 lbs. Is a heavy spring. It's for 180 gr +P or just Hot Ammo. I think 17 lbs. is what is called for in the 40 S&W; Glock 22. It has the stander slide so 20 lbs. might be a bit much unless your issue ammo is HOT like +P ammo. I would not tamper my duty gun unless calling Glock first here. To much at stake here for liability reasons.

Without weighting it I would say yes. It is not very heavy. It has been used with no problem with calibers up to .308.

I tried the weight, did not help me. I used Lee Dippers, which I checked on my beam scale. For me, the results are within .1 to .2 grains. good enough for me 'cause I load 90% Max.

Yes. The standard 55 grain is the factory dial in . Although I am getting much better accuracy w the XM855 62 grain steel core rounds. Not sure why, maybe I'm just getting old and blind.

I have used my set of dies in a Lyman Spartan press to load several hundred rounds with no problems so far. I don't know if this is the recommended use but it works for me. My rifle hasn't blown up yet but I stay within recommended loadings correlated from a number of reloading manuals. Accuracy for me is as good as I get with factory loads but then I'm a half blind, one eared, old fat man and don't shoot that well anyway. Hope this helps. Ken

As long as you don't go over 1KG. It measures in Grams, Diamond Weight, Troy Ounces, Ounces, and karats I believe. I would rather have had the grain option but oh well. If you are looking for the scale with the grain option there is the same exact scale http://www.amazon.com/Hornady-Electronic-Scale-1500-Grains/dp/B001KZ7JLW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1399932622&sr=8-2&keywords=powder+scales but this one has the grain option. I use mine on a daily basis and have compared its accuracy to at least 5 other scales both mechanical and electric and it is always dead on. I have both scales and they are my favorite so far. American Weigh Scales has been around a long time and there is evident quality in the piece. So if you are measuring kitchen items such as rice; You put the container on the scale and press tear (this will zero the display and lock its calibration), you can then add your ingredients. Sorry for the lengthy response, but I figured I would give you and others as much info as possible.

IMO, for rifles, yes. For pistols? Not as much. Use volume density to set the approximate volume for the powder and grains that you will use. Throw 10 charges into your balance pan and then divide the weight by 10. Adjust the measuring rod on the powder dispenser so that the weight of 10 charges (about 470 grains for a .338) is 10X the charge per cartridge that you want. Test at the beginning of your reload run and then half way through. I found that I could reload about 100 rounds per hour.

This is not ammo, this is the brass for you to load your own ammunition. The quality of the ammunition you fire in the range will depend on your loading techniques, the powder you use, the load you feed the brass, etc., etc.. This brass has been fired once and after inspecting the ones I received, out of 1,000, I rejected one, so that's a great percentage there. I hope I have answered your question. Good shooting. Stay safe and blessed.

That will depend entirely on the weight of the pellet. The gun is rated at 1650 fps with lightweight PBA ammo. I would not recommend using that as it can damage the gun internally. I would go for something 10 grains or heavier, that should bring the velocity down into a more acceptable and more accurate range. Thanks Pyramyd Air Team

I have it on a 22-250 and it seem to work well. O will be at 250 for shooting at about 400 yds. I will use the mill dot for range adjustment.
