    Yep,,, It is a great scale. The little thumb piece broke off my powder tray and I compensated by adding a couple or three birdshot pellets to the pan trey. With check weight pieces, it still checks perfect.

      When they work they work. Mine was in service for about 40 years before I gave it to my son.

        A cream or grey Ohaus scale similar to the Lyman M-5 with a sliding tenths poise is an Ohaus 10•0•5 scale. The 10•10 Scales never had a sliding tenths poise and have always, since inception, had a rotary micrometer tenths poise.

          Thanks Danny,
          I stand corrected. I never really paid attention to the model number. I just called it my Ohaus scale over the years. I replaced it with a Chinese RCBS 10-10 and it looked close enough to me to think it was the same.
