[QUOTE="DocB, post: 1103541, member: 55312"] "...give a man a fish or teach him to fish" or thereabouts. So let's go fishin! So for next time you can do this: use a calculator ( on your phone, ipad, puter, somewhere) and either: divide (/ sign) 50 (your max charge wt.) by 100 (50 / 100 = one percent of 50 or 0.5 gr.). So in this instance 1% of 50 gr = 0.5 gr. or multiply (* sign) 50.0 x .01 ( function of 1 part of 100 or 1%) = 0.5 gr or using your weight or whatever value, in this case 50.0 gr, simply move the decimal point 2 places to the left to get 1%. So moving like this ... one place left from 50.0 = 5.00, moving 2 places to the left from 50.0 = 0.500. 2% would be twice the value you receive in all cases above. I hope this helps you in the future. Good luck amigo, enjoy and be safe! DocB [/QUOTE]
