I'm looking for an accurate (but affordable) scientific scale to weigh rocket parts, etc., in both grams and ounces (for accurate entries into Rocksim, etc.).

I came across the following listing from a Big Box Store website, and I'm wondering if it will do.

For those of you who are experienced at this sort of thing, please respond accordingly. Thanks in advance!
