    Very accurate and repeatable without the flaky bs of a lot of digi scales
    I second this. I love my MyWeigh GemPro 250, very accurate and repeatable. Not sure if I'd call $140 affordable but compared to $400 or higher, sure. I only recently discovered mine to be temperature sensitive. If it is cold (temperature, not electronics just turned on), the reading will drift even if I recalibrate it. Now I keep it inside (instead of my garage) and haven't had any other problems.

    Their lifetime warranty is what sold it for me.

    I also heard great things of the Brian Enos scales for ~$75, but no direct experience with them.

    How cold is "cold?" My garage is heated and usually only gets as cold as 50 degrees.

    It wasn't colder than 50. The interesting thing was I used it out there all winter without problems and suddenly it started doing this. A 168gr bullet, after calibration with the included 20g weight, weighed 272gr. Burris on their website, it says to keep the scale in a room between 65-85F, or it will drift, just like mine was doing. After warming up for a few hours, it was holding steady again.
