Ran this little test today with just ten different balls concerning variation in weights and I'd venture to say that considering the 'laws of probability' that if I had weighed 500, the results would represent the same percentages of variation! This was made with Hornady swaged .58 caliber balls. I have duly noted that there is concern reference balls being deformed when started with a short starter and IMO that begins possibly with either the incorrect sized ball and or patch material OR....an alloy that is too soft to negate the deformation of the ball! For what it's worth! :surrender: :bow:
If you click on the photo a couple of times it will enlarge such that you can see the weights!
