Hi Eager,

You could put a small tuperware type container on the scales before you zero them - then it won't matter if you spill a little water...


Alternatively, there is a much simpler method:

Litely strike each case with a metalic object - then batch them according to the note they make; A,B,C,D,E,F and G - some people don't have a good enough 'ear' for it, but you can use a guitar tuner....any cases with a sharp or flat note need discarding.

Hi all


Thanks for the prompt and varied feedback - some great methods and tips
- a Spud video even party2

seriously thanks!!!


What amazes me about shooting and reloading is how much of the maths and physics we learnt at school we use in our hobby!

Conclusion - we are all nerds that like bangs!!

ENS sorry for the humour, this forum is a fantastic resource of knowledge for most things shooting, sadly there are one or two very immature people who frequent it that have to make silly comments :roll: :run: ( I'll get my coat)
