[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 1918086, member: 107384"] I don't really care all that much and apparently the folks at SAMMI don't either, but it seems to me that a case manufactured to SAMMI specs should have a standard weight and therefore a standard volume. For the finicky among us a weight/volume matters. For the rest of us not so much. If I took 100 new .25-06 cases from any manufacture I could probably put the same amount of powder for a maximum load into all of them and that's all that matters. As for efficiency, I don't much care. I subscribe to the advice of using the powder that fills or nearly fills the case as long as it performs accuracy-wise. [/QUOTE]
