[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1678555, member: 10291"] Most of the time when I looking for case volume differences, for comparing case capacity of my established loads when trying new brass. I simply compare the total volume of my particular powder used for my load in duplicate(to check for packing consistency), and compare the net powder weight between the two cases. I use a spent primer to plug the flash hole. It’s not as scientific as determining standard water capacity, but more then sufficient to understand load volume adjustments. Recently used this approach to determine a 2.5-2.7gr increased weight capacity of Retumbo in Norma 300WM cases compared to Winchester cases. Took less then 5 minutes with no fuss. IMO. [/QUOTE]
