In this day and age when scales both electron (absolutely accurate) and conventional are extremely accurate the easiest way to triple check if your own reloaded ammunition has powder in the case or NOT is to actually weigh the finished round. I know that i mostly use 125Gr projectiles, plus my Dillon press is set to deliver 4.0 grns of powder. Dillon and Lee presses are extremely accurate in the delivery of powder. Hence the 9mm Winchester case weighs 62 grns (or other brands), my projectile 125grns and 4grn powder. So, if i think i failed to load one round correctly i can set my scale at 189 grns allowing for +/- variance and i weigh each round and if the scale reads below 189grns there MAY be an issue. Just went out to my loading room, checked a few rounds and it it looks like it should work. Thoughts?
