I am not sure if this has been discussed before but I need a little help.
I have decided to buy a electronic scale and measurer and I am having trouble deciding wether to go with Lyman 1200 or RCBS Chargemaster.
Here in Canada the Lyman is approximately $100.00 cheaper and I can not get any US company to send me one because of the Homeland Security Law. Price is a factor but not the deciding one.
Which one in your opinions is better?

I guess I should have looked over the forum a little better as I see that the question was recently asked.
I still would like more input if possible and also if any other Canadian is having problems getting product across the border.

The price Wholesale shows for both units look like they priced them when the CAN$ was in the mid .60 cent US range. Websites are often out of date, so I'd phone them and ask what today's price is.

Apparently some of the guys on CGN have ordered from Natchez Shooters Supply recently. You have to phone for international orders. Their prices are good, but they're out of stock on the RCBS unit.

There's still several US dealers who ship to Canada, but Midway isn't one of them. Oh for the good old days when you could import anything. :(
