I have approximately 200 pieces of Hornady headstamp 6.5 CM brass, all range pickups.
All appear to be once fired.
Weight sorted and got the following, approximately:
Under 151 grains 10%
151+ to 151.5 10
151.5+ to 152 15
152+ to 152.5 15
152.5+ to 155 40
155+ 10
Different lots obviously. The first handful measured 151 to 152 so I was expecting a tighter range.
How anal should I be?
Should I resort the 152.5 to 155 into smaller groups?
Then what? What is an acceptable range within lots?
Thank you for sharing your experience.
