[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 605336, member: 1521"] B23 It MIGHT correlate,, or not. The only way to know is to directly measure & compare weight -vs- capacity for a given cartridge and brass lot. And by this I mean every single case(not just a sample). With this you'll know, and if it's important to you, then that's just what you'll do. That velocity step changes from NEW brass to FIRE-FORMED brass, is observed enough with hunting cartridges to warrant consideration of capacity(IMO). Afterall, brass weight does not change with this, but capacity does. I think brass weight is useful, as is thickness variance, and capacity. I do not think you should pick the easiest of these and rationalize that all is covered by that action alone. [/QUOTE]
