It’s surprising that the Remington brass was more consistent. I would have thought the more expensive brass would be more precise.

Dan,

Winchester Lot A was bulk brass purchased in bags.

Was the Group A Winchester brass boxed or bagged?

John,

I used a RCBS electronic scale. I have used this RCBS scale side by side with an Denver Instruments MXX-123 and in comparisons the RCBS scale has been consistant within 0.1 grain. I just have to make sure I turn it on for a least 30 minutes prior to making any measurements.

It would be interesting to know what type of scales was used for this exercise. Also to know the nominal accuracy of these scales and the observed accuracy of these scales.
