[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1509554, member: 4191"] Nosler weight sorts their brass prior to packaging it for sale. Which is a nice effort. I hope your Nosler brass holds tight primer pockets at the pressures you expose them to. Some Nosler cases are soft. Some, like the 28 and 30 Nosler cartridge cases are reported to be pretty stout in their case head strengths. The consistency of case weight is nice, but that value is lost as soon as the primer pockets enlarge to the point they no longer seal off the gases from the bolt face. The larger the physical size of the case, the greater the spread in individual case weights to be expected. And the larger the case capacity, the smaller the variance in MV per gr difference in case weight. [/QUOTE]
