[QUOTE="Rijndael, post: 2336947, member: 9298"] I've never liked relying on case weight. You don't know where that extra weight is, whether it's in the wall thickness or in the case head. I prefer to go off the wet/water capacity of the case. Ideally, I like to measure it once the case has been fire formed to your chamber and trimmed to length. Once you have these numbers, you can input the data in to a tool like GRT, Gordon's Reloading Tool, and see how the water capacity differences impact your velocity. How close is your current load to being a max load? Are you on the edge of pressure signs? [/QUOTE]
