[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1656352, member: 93138"] I am trying to use simple case weight as a preliminary case sorting method. Weed out the real outliers before any of those case prep chores were performed on them. With something like Quickload needing the case capacity in water I don't see a calculated case weight being a viable substitute. For that to work you will need to supply what it asks for. With brass being 8.5 times denser than water I can see how small changes in the brass can have an effect on total case weight, i.e. the various case prep chores can have an unexpectedly large effect on case weight. Obviously case size will be important as to the overall effect. Becomes kind of a chicken vs. egg problem. Those chores are to make them more uniform, yet why invest in all of that work in a case that is an outlier to start with. Yet if you don't invest in the work, how do you know that the reason it is an outlier is because it has excessive primer hole flash? [/QUOTE]
