[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 635770, member: 25383"] many years back I ran a test on brass to see if it had different weights for a specific cubic inch of size. I found it varied all over the place (was not being measured for reloading). If you used only one brand and lot, I think you'd be OK by case weights. But most of us don't. I ran this by a well known metalugical engineer, and he laughed at me (I always thought I was pretty good at metalurgy, but he was a lightyear ahead of me). He said everybody had their on make up of the alloy, and thus the weight per a certain volume would vary from brand to brand. gary [/QUOTE]
