Weighing brass.
Hi Marsh>
I dont weigh the brass it self,but I do weigh the inside volume.I fill the case with graphide,tap it 5 times on something solid, top it off again and scrape it off flush and weigh it.
The reason I do this is to get even compresion on my powder.
Marsh that lube you asked about a while back did'nt work any better tham Emmerts,but this stuff out of the original Sharps Rifle manual is verry good.It shrunk my groupe 3/4"by average over anything else I have used.And the fouling stayes moist with a few blowes on the tube.One pass with a dry patch the bore is clean.
Make smoke Marsh, Lp.
