Description

The Redding Model No. 2 is a professional-grade mechanical balance beam scale designed for ultimate accuracy and sensitivity. It features a 505-grain capacity, magnetic damping for fast readings, and hardened steel knife edges resting on precision stainless steel bearing seats. Every scale is individually calibrated to U.S. Bureau of Standards master weights to ensure consistent $pm 0.1$ grain accuracy.

Accuracy: Guaranteed to less than $1/10^{th}$ grain.

Safety: Zero-reset capability ensures every measurement starts from a true baseline.

Convenience: Includes an aluminum scale pan with an integrated pour spout for easy transfer to cartridge cases.

Magnetic Damping: This is the “secret sauce.” It uses magnets to quickly slow the oscillation of the beam so you aren’t waiting 30 seconds for the pointer to stop moving.

Hardened Steel Bearings: The beam floats on “knife-edge” bearings. This minimizes friction, allowing the scale to detect even a tiny fraction of a grain of powder.

Graduated Plate: The scale features a clear, easy-to-read graduated dial that is calibrated in 1/10th grain increments.

Capacity: It has a 505-grain capacity, which is more than enough for almost any consumer reloading task, from light pistol loads to heavy rifle bullets.
