My Old and Only Reloading Scale

[shil]

My +40-year-old RCBS 5.10 still performs yeoman service!

Just bought this from the LGS for $20.00. Probably came from an estate that they bought.

I wish I had bought one of those when they were still in production.

Any idea what these sold for? Or what it is worth?

I think retail was around $125.00 or so twenty years ago, but that's a guess. I don't know when they went out of production. I wouldn't buy one of these (or any other scale) used without being able to examine it first.

Thanks for the info. I am not thinking of selling it. For beam type scales I have a Redding No.1, a Lyman D7, a RCBS 10-10 and Lee scale, and of course now this one. These are in my collection. My Wife, Daughter and Grandkids will get to figure out what to do with it when I cross the Rainbow Bridge. Hopefully, not for a long time yet.

I have a Lyman 505 Accuscale that was gifted to me by a friend and works quite well for my use. I do have a Lyman M5 somewhere in my stash of stuff. Most of my reloading involves blackpowder loads for my Spencer carbine or Trail Boss for my converted 3rd model dragoon in 45LC.
