Default Frankford Arsenal intellidropper-any good?

Just wondering who has one of these, how do you like it and if anyone has compared one to a chargemaster.

Have them both
They are very similar
Very good scales

I upgraded to an AutoTrickler

Have them both for sale

AutoTrickler is just sooo fast and is a more accurate scale
But 4 times the price lol

That’s the problem with the auto trickler and the wait time to get your hands on one.

They are very close to the same speed and they both are very good for not over throwing charges

Running both of them at the same time, I was dropping charges non stop

The Chargemaster and the intellidropper are wonderful units.

It’s for a new Reloader who doesn’t need the precision or cost of a fx120i and v4 auto trickler.

I can't shoot the difference in those new measuring/ weighing systems , so I weigh mine in an old Ohaus beam scale then throw all all my charges on my Harrel.
Last night after 40 rounds the 41st round came put the very same on the scale as the first one .
The sling and irons cancel any added cost because if I can hold ten into 2 MOA at 1k , I'm happy .

I tried to find the thread, but it says the pic is no longer availalable, but I believe it was this one.
I don't shoot that well every time I get to the line, but I can do it on occasion.
I pic of the rifle is in this thread
model 70 if anyone is interested.
