Just for your information. I am developing loads for Friendship . It is our fall Nationals . I weighed out loads from 70 grains up to 84 grains in 2 grain increments . Example 70,72,74 ect... Anyway I was using a Hornady electronic loader that weighs your loads automatically. I was weighing out 70 grain loads. I left one of the 70 grain loads on my scale by accident . The next day that 70 grain load weighed 71.6 grains. That would definitely make a difference when trying to make precise shots at long range.
My point is . Make sure to always keep powder in sealed containers / quick loads . My garage is air conditioned I would think with out air conditioning the humidity would of effected my weight even more.
Maybe this is a case where measuring by volume like most manufactures suggest would be more consistant ?
