Moonshine, you got me curious now.
So I weighed my 3. Not as a rebuttal or to be argumentative, just curious as you. There seems to be some discreprentcies out there.
My scale is a commercial electronic one used for measuring tare weights. It picks up a 90 gr bullet in a 5k lot, so it is pretty accurate.
