I was out and about today and while picking up something for my wife at a store called "Sur La Table" which is similar to Williams Sonoma and other culinary-type establishments, I ran across a very reasonably priced electronic scale, which is designed solely for very light weights.
Made by Salter, its their model 1250, for use in measuring ultra fine weights in .005 oz increments. This unit has a relatively small footprint and has a weight capacity range of .005 - 8.0 ounces or .1 - 250 grams.
The cost is $29. I bought one and tested it against my magnetic beam scale and appears right on... I'll have to check it with a known weight. Comes with a 10 year warranty. It may not be a powder/shot scale in the strict sense, but at $29 for a food quality scale designed specifically for light weight, appears to be a great value. Cover acts as the receptacle.
regards to all,
Jay
