[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1508959, member: 2736"] You are absolutely correct about the cartridge base possibly being thicker/different, but if it is it will change the volume and the weight. The only real variable that we cant measure by weighting or a volume test is the extractor groove. Its depth or width can have effect on weight but not volume. the reason that volume testing can still be the best if done correctly. but the difference in weight is almost immeasurable if at all because it is normally machined and very consistent. Measuring the extractor groove is a very difficult way to look for any difference and calculate the weight difference so I ruled it out as a factor. Like you, I have ran many test and found one thing that improved performance. "Consistency" in all things related to loading no matter how you achieve it, It always improves performance.
