What ever happened to the old Ohaus Dial-O-Matic scales?
You could weight up to 90 grains by using the dial.

I have had an Ohaus 10-10 scale since about 1973. I believe that RCBS bought them out, or at least they now make the 10-10 scale. I think that they used to make the one you are looking for so you might give Huntingtons a call.

Here's what I found on the Ohaus forum.

mine says model 1110 and under that- dial-o-grain. bought when i started loading and the only scale i have ever owned.

These scales are still available, but would be harder to use, since they're calibrated in grams.



BTW, .01g = .1543 gr which isn't quite up to what we normally use (+/- .1 gr) in reloading

I had one during the 70's and, now have a 3110 now.
There are none on E-bay or Google.

I have an old one it still works great. A buddy of mine who is in the firearms industry told me they were very popular with the drug dealers maybe that's why they now read grams?

I don't imagine drug dealers are that concerned about reading anything less than 10 mg, so the old triple beam, like you used in high school, would do the job. I bought new triple beam just so I could weight up to a couple of pounds (it has to have auxiliary weights to do it) with reasonable accuracy.

I would say the Ohaus 505 was cheaper and more accurate, so the less accurate and more expensive Dial scale fell in disuse.

This one belonged to my dad. I put it in a box in 2005 when he died. I will probably never use it. still in excellant condition. I recall using it in the 80 and 90s. I bought a used 10-10 in the 90s and since I use a dillion and mainly target loads, dont really have the need for this one.

If its still functional it would bring a pretty good price on Ebay!
Somewhere north of $200 to the right buyer.
Neat scale - too bad it was dropped but probably for cost and not that well bought by consumers given the cost back then of their 10-10 scale.

really, I am starting to scrape up stuff for sale as I need $$$$ for a Fusion CCO build.

thanks

I just checked Ebay for completed listings but nothing was there on the scale. When I saw the last one it was about $247 and not finished as yet.
Don't know how it ended BUT you always need the right mix of bidders.

Good luck if you try to sell.
