Greetings,

I am segregating my .223 brass by headstamps when I reload to have better accuracy: LC, PMC, FC, WWC, etc...

With Lake City, do I have to segregate by years too or I can just reload all the LC together?

Thank you

Weight it and find out.

If it weighs the same, and is from the same manufacture, it is the same for all practical purposes.

Greetings,

oh! I should have thought about that... What is the weight variation that is acceptable in grains do you think?

Thank you

Scroll down about 1/4 way in this link to "Brass--New and Once-Fired".

You also have to size, de-prime & trim to length before weighing to get accurate results.
