[QUOTE="lever-hed, post: 368909, member: 11667"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]IMO, sort by ogive. Then take some steel wool and see if you can ‘wipe’ off the .1 gr differences in bullet weights. Depending on how many you need for a match or target practice or whatever, would tell you if you have to increase the pool with which to stock pile a batch. If you need 100 rounds, or 500 , will tell you that you need a much larger pool of bullets to sort and select. Some would say don’t worry about the weight as variances in scale readings due to accuracy or the like account for the differences you have no control over.. think of it like this, wind will undoubtedly be a major factor in POI, are you going to fuss over 1/10th gr bullet wt or are you going to focus on something that has more impact on accuracy such as throwing charges , case capacity/dimensions, marksmanship, etc. It’s a game of numbers. And, then again if it makes YOU feel better, then by all means..[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
