Also, the conversion I gave is the exact measure of grains to grams. Why would I want to switch to a $25 dollar scale. I'm trying to understand your comment here to go backwards in accuracy.

1 Grain = 0.064798918 Grams or
15.43235644768019 grains = 1 gram
By your own figures , this scale is only accurate to within 0.154 gr IF it is calibrated and working perfectly AND your math is right on. That is over 50% less accurate as a used $20 reloading scale that goes to within 0.1 gr all day long. Do yourself a favor and get a real reloading scale. If you can't afford $20 worth of safety, you need to rethink your involvement in the entire hobby.
