Thank you so much for the video series. I had no idea about how to fine tune the V4, can’t wait to try it. I really love this powder unit, it makes powder dropping a breeze!
Thank you for the finer points on tuning of the system. One question/suggestion Could there be a way to set up a scale tolerance for the larger grain powders. I believe the current scale tolerance is +/- .02 grains or maybe it’s within .02 grains. Could the software be modified to allow a green light indication of say +/- .06 grains? As you were saying with the N570 powder. I do understand that that would cause more fiddling with the system and users may forget what setting they are on but if it was somehow tied to the powder profile that could be possible. Anyway. Thanks
1. A single kernel of H4350 weighs ANYwhere between .02 - .04. It's random and it's SUPER annoying. 2. Know your audience. Accepting a larger tolerance of up to 2 kernels just because it's H4350? NOPE. Know the audience and their expectations. Shooters have already gotten really good results with the SUPER LOUSY tolerances of the old Hornady and RCBS thrower/scale combos, which are HALF the price of this. Why would someone then sell their chargemaster say, and spend DOUBLE the money to accept larger tolerances? lol. Nope. No way I'd accept that for a thousand dollars. At say 200 yards and under I'm sure .04 tolerance will get you tight groups, but past that, if you have a case with plus .04 in it, then the next case has less .04 in it, your vertical dispersions going to SUCK lol. Throw short and add single kernels to stay in a tighter tolerance. BUT, nonetheless thank you SO much for showing us how to tune the horrible H4350 lol. This was really needed.
With an extreme spread of +/- 0.04 GN the min/max spread is 0.08 which is worth 4 fps. An excellent SD is 4 which would be a spread of 16 expected over 20 shots. Because of how multiple error sources combine, adding an ES of 4 to an existing ES of 16 gives you an ES of 16.5, which is not noticeable on target. It's non linear and non intuitive. It's important to reach a certain point but beyond that diminishing returns drastically reduces the benefits.

Thank you for the updated video on tuning, this was REALLY helpful! Going to go check it now.
Macky, You love the trickler!
Thx for an Update Video. Love my Autotrickler V4 greetings from 🇩🇪
Why don’t you just put the shim under the back part of the V4 , between the v4 body and the plexiglass lid?
I do it like this✌🏻
Thank you!! Very much appreciated.
An amazing machine!
Thank You

Anyway. Thanks
A&D warned me against haveing iPad or phone too near the scale.
What's too close?
Are the units all measuring close enough to each other to have an online library of settings per powder type?
How do you adjust the tolerance from a +- .02 to a different amount?
