Model: 205205 • UPC: 661120052050
Get fast, reliable measurements without taking up precious bench space. The Frankford Arsenal DS-750 Digital Reloading Scale delivers precise, repeatable readings for powder charges, bullets, and small components in a compact package that’s perfect for travel, range days, and minimalist reloading setups. With a 750-grain (50 gram) capacity, fine resolution, and simple, two-button operation, the DS-750 is the affordable precision tool every handloader should have on the bench—or in the bag.
Why Reloaders Choose the DS-750
Bench-Ready Accuracy: Designed to measure powder charges and components with consistent, repeatable results to help tighten ES/SD and improve downrange performance.
750-Grain Capacity: Ample headroom for powder charges, bullets, cases, and small parts—without stepping up to a bulky lab scale.
Compact & Portable: Slim profile with a protective lid slides into a drawer, range bag, or ammo can.
Simple Interface: Intuitive controls and clear LCD display mean less time fiddling and more time loading.
Calibration-Friendly: Includes a calibration weight (typical package) for quick zeroing and confidence in your measurements.
Versatile Units: Toggle between grains and grams (and other common units when available) to match manuals, recipes, and component specs.
Note: Always follow the included user manual for setup, calibration, and best practices. Specs and included accessories may vary slightly by production run.
Ideal Uses on the Reloading Bench
Powder Charge Verification: Confirm trickled or thrown charges before seating bullets.
Component Weighing: Sort bullets and brass by weight for precision batches.
Accessory Tasks: Weigh springs, pins, and small parts during gunsmithing or assembly.
Travel & Range Work: Take the DS-750 to the range for on-site load development and quick checks.
How to Get Accurate Measurements (Quick Start)
Level & Warm-Up: Place the scale on a stable, draft-free surface; allow it to acclimate to room temperature.
Calibrate: Use the included calibration weight and follow the on-screen prompts.
Zero/Tare: Place your powder pan and press TARE to zero the display.
Weigh: Add powder or components until the target value is reached, watching the clear LCD readout.
Verify & Record: Recheck a few throws to confirm consistency, then record your data.
Pro Tip: Avoid drafts, A/C vents, and bench vibration; even minor air movement can affect readings on sensitive digital scales.

Best Practices for Consistency
Calibrate Often: Calibrate each session or after significant temperature changes.
Keep It Clean: Brush off stray kernels and wipe the tray; debris can skew readings.
Avoid Magnetized Tools: Magnetism and static can affect light charges—use anti-static funnels and pans when possible.
Let It Rest: After moving the scale, give it a minute to stabilize before weighing critical charges.
Document Everything: Track charge weights, ambient temperature, and lot numbers in your load log for repeatable results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the DS-750 accurate enough for rifle and pistol loads?
Yes—its fine digital resolution and repeatable readings make it suitable for most rifle and handgun powder charges when used correctly.
Does it come with a calibration weight?
Most DS-750 packages include a calibration weight; verify contents at purchase.
Can I weigh bullets and brass?
Absolutely. With 750-grain capacity, you can sort bullets/brass by weight to reduce ES/SD and improve group consistency.
Do I need a trickler with this scale?
A powder trickler helps fine-tune charges to exact weights. The DS-750 reads incremental additions clearly as you trickle.
Will drafts affect readings?
Yes—like any sensitive scale. Use it on a stable, draft-free surface away from vents for the best results.
