Never heard of it. Who makes it and sell it?I use the Lyman1200PDS,great product!If you alresdy have this scale(201)just make sure that you verify the accuracy of the scale.That goes for all scales.
 
MyWeigh probably makes about 1/2 of the digital scales to be found. Their reputation and reviews are quite good.

Looks like a nice scale to me and comes with an ac adaptor (a plus in my opinion) Not particularly cheap but probably worth a few extra bucks. Comes with a rather heavy calibration weight though (200 grams) and OldWillKnotts lists .2 grain tolerance.

I think this one might be a smarter choice except for the lack of adaptor

The Lyman1200DPS,and the RCBS scales allow you to weigh and dispense in one operation.It looked to me that the MyWeigh system did not allow this.A disadvantage to me.The RCBS is on sale now at Midway USA for $269.99.Mid-South has the Lyman1200 for $214.00.IMO,better products.
 
At 2 to 4 times the price, I hope you are correct! Be interesting to know who actually builds those scales for Lyman and RCBS.

I have used both of these products,they are setting on my reloading bench now,as far as I know,they are made by their namesakes.I only suggested these products for the ease of use.You do not have to manualy do anything with them other than fill them with powder,program charge weight,zero scale, and start cranking loads out.If price is not a issue, they are hard to beat.I shoot alot.Individualy adjusting weights is out for me.To time consuming.I have been that route.SUCKS!! The afore mentioned products allow you to save specific powder and charge weights to memory.It is a win,win IMO.
 
Tar - I'm not disagreeing with you though I believe the RCBS WAS at one time (if not currently) made by Ohaus. The Lyman is surely OEM'd from someone else. No doubt they are both excellent products but some of us have to stay on the more economical end of things and the MyWeighs might well be a good choice in that regard.

It also would not surprise me at all to learn that Ohaus is importing some of their scales at this time. Some of their models look remarkably like MyWeigh's. :)

Underclocked,Great product review! I have used that Lyman so much,I did not know I had it so bad! :D The clean up on that Lyman is second nature to me now.I use both the RCBS and the Lyman when I am reloading.I will load rounds for the 22.250 and the 243, while my son weighs up charges for the Sav.10 MLs.
