Does anyone else find the 1/10 slider on the 505 scale extremely annoying. I was using mine to trickle 42.0 grains of varget while my Chargemaster went back for warranty. On round 48 of 50 I realized the slider got moved to the .1 notch. Seems like the shape and shallowness of the notches make it too easy to bump while messing with the pan.
 
I have the 10-10 and it as a "drum" that rolls. Much nicer set up. The little notched 1/10th grain thingy is the reason why I didn't get a 505.
 
I have a Hornady 500 Pro that is the same way.I tried finding the RCBS measure with the rotating drum but alas it worked to well and they quit making that model.But a person can still get the RCBS top of the line with the rotating drum for around 2 bills.
