Greetings,
I am a little bit puzzled here.
I am used to load 5.1 grain of No2 with the UniqueTek micrometer. Never had to change the setting in months. Of course, I do check the powder weight thoroughly each time I start to load and at around every 100 rounds I load.
Yesterday, I finished a 5# of No2 and oppened a new container. Both have been bought at the same time and both have the same production batch number.
At my weight check time, I noticed I had 4.8 grains instead of 5.1 grains!!! I had to adjust the micrometer end from 3 to 24 (For those of you that have one, you will understand). First time it happened to me that I had to do such an adjustment. Usually, I may fine tune 2-5 digits. But not almost a whole turn of the dial!
Any idea what maybe the issue? Has it ever happened to you? With a micrometer bar or the usual bar that you had to reset of such an amount?
Thank you
