I'm new to reloading. I just tumbled about 50 spent .30-06 shells from different manufacturers. I'm trying to keep very specific records, so I sorted the brass by headstamp and weighed a sample from each manufacturer. Within each manufacturer group I found the cases to be withing 0.2-0.3 grains of tolerance. However, each group was different from the other by 5-10 grains.
Is the heavier brass a better quality brand? Do you build hotter loads in heavier brass?
