    No need, I used a spent primer, just reseated it. Okay, after several tries. Had to poke the air bubbles out of the case with an Allen key got two readings of 50.90gn Will now try it on a new Lapua case. Both cases have been trimmed to the same length.

    The Lapua case holds 51.14gn. A difference of .24gn. Not as much difference as I would've expected. Of course most cases of the same brand are going to be slightly different in weight anyway even if their capacity is the same. All measurements taken on an A&D FXi 550 scale which is accurate to 1/50th of a grain or 0.02gn.
