trp Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 This thing sucks just reads error right out of the box can't zero, the cabelas tells me they've had a few returns on this same item. Just thought I'd let everyone know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerrickJ Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I've had issues with the pocket electronic scale from Hornady too. I switched to the RCBS 1010, much better (but not electronic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul788 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 The other side of that quarter is I bought one, used it for two years and forgot to turn it off. It stayed one for two weeks and the display would not clear. I called Hornady and asked if it could be repaired since it was past the one year warrenty. The lady asked for my address and shipped a new one as a free replacement. This one has lasted three years so far. If you'll check some other posts you'll find that electronic scales have issues at a frequent rate and all brands are included. There are several websites that sell small electronic scales, none have Hornady's or Dillon's or RCBS's warranty and service. Paul Beck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natgas Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I"ve only had my Hornady for about 3 weeks but it seems pretty accurate. I've compared it to 2 other electronic scales and it is dead on with them. It does seem very sensitive to the slightest movement (a/c, bench, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRider8 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I have an use the Hornady GS-1500 also, it has been a great scale,powers up quickly measures accurately,no weights found different than my other scales. Perfect purchase for using with progressive loaders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardy Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Hornady GS-1500 here also...going on 2 years of use. Still seems pretty solid for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
