[QUOTE="mt_archer, post: 778672, member: 26573"] In my experience, it does not matter. If you want to compare, weigh a sample from each to see if they are close. If you have any doubt due to weight variations, prime a case, weigh it, then fill with water and weigh it. That gives you an even better comparison of volume. In my nosler brass, that has proven to me that volume is consistent despite lot to lot case weight variation. They shoot the same, too. I tested Remington 338 ultra brass by weight once, and it was terrible, about 15 grain variation within 100 cases. I loaded five of the lightest and five of the heaviest, and there was no correlation to velocity. They averaged same, and were all within my normal ES. Norma brass is great usually, so you should be fine. Main reason I keep brass in lots is to track number of times loaded. [/QUOTE]
