[QUOTE="ar10ar15man, post: 1629792, member: 106836"] maybe, but we do not size them with hammers. we trim the exterior the best we can with simple tools and size them the same. the alloy in a batch is the same, the density the same, the exterior the same. this tends to provide a uniform interior...volume. in quality brass cases now i have heard horror stories of extractor groves cut different varying the weight and not the volume. but in my 50 plus years i have never encountered it.never. and the opposite is true. i have volume checked cases and come up with the SAME volume in cases that WEIGHED the same. i know mikecr is an accomplished gun person, but we differ on this point. my experience is different than his.
