Sure, it may read to the nearest 0.1 gram... but unless you are spending a lot of money on a scale or are using a balance, they aren't that accurate at all.
Looking at scales that are available through McMaster-Carr... the generic ~$80 scales with somewhere in the 2 lb to 2 kg max range have accuracies of +/-4 or 5 grams
If you want it much more accurate than that you need to either drop $250+ or you need to be using a double or triple beam balance.
Your typical kitchen or postal scale is generally not required to be horribly accurate...
Because your scale says it is 184 does not necessarily mean that it isn't 179g
Just some food for thought...
This is why I haven't purchased a scale and worried much about the disc weight. I generally order my drivers in the mid to high 160s area. So if they are actually +/-5 grams it doesn't bother me.
I don't trust cheap instruments much more than the weights that Innova/Discraft/Gateway claim the disc is from the factory.
