[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1166312, member: 10755"] I have to ask, what cartridge are you weight sorting? I have only sorted 300WM, 300RUM and 264WM. The 300RUM is used for 338 Edge. I do the same as you, except I don't trim and I fireform my comp brass and keep it in batches that cover a match +20, just in case. Even though I believe weight sorting has no bearing on case volume, unless actually checked, as a case gets SMALLER, case capacity uniformity becomes far more important than large cases. I have a 338-416 Rigby in development using Norma brass, I can't detect any discrepency in capacity, on a test lot of 30 out of 200 pieces, using my burrette. The weighed cases differ by 3-5gr on average, yet, I cannot detect much difference in cc's. I haven't used this rifle yet, it's not finished, but think it should be more uniform than my 338 Edge, which is now almost impossible to get brass for here. I guess, we will see. Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
