[QUOTE="Turpentine21, post: 2676862, member: 124909"] Agreed, I do think if using range fired brass or some factory brass, weighing will help identify any glaring inconsistencies and outliers. I have been able to produce some outstandingly accurate, consistent loads with with range brass. For me there are 3 big questions. How accurate do I want to be? My answer is always very accurate even if I don’t necessarily need it. What are my specific uses for the particular ammo? Will some of those uses result in a high loss rate of brass? My uses, particularly for my ARs, result in the loss of quite a bit of brass. I can’t see me paying premium prices in that circumstance. I don’t even use my LC Match when doing depredation work. Those cases are my babies. More for sentimental reasons than price. I’m weird that way. Perhaps I’m a “Brass Whore”. Ive never seen a piece I didn’t like. But I want the accuracy and often need it. If I donate a Federal or Winchester case to the environment, I don’t feel a great sense of loss. Leave a few pieces of the good stuff and I may come back with the metal detector. That’s where the cheaper brass shines. I enjoy the prep part of it and get a great deal of satisfaction from it. If a person doesn’t lose a lot of brass, puts a price on his time, and would rather just spend more time shooting than doing brass prep, he would likely find lthat premium brass is a bargain.
