Rustygun Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Here is data from the Glock talk forum. I have taken the time to count and it is surprisingly accurate. So if you have a way to weight your bucket you can easily calculate number of cases in a bucket 9mm, 59.46gr/ea, 117.7cases/#, 8.5#/100038spl, 68.06gr/ea, 102.8cases/#, 9.7#/100040s&w, 70.1gr/ea, 99.9cases/#, 10#/1000.357mag, 78.3gr/ea, 89.4cases/#, 11.2#/1000.45acp, 89.58gr/ea, 78.1cases/#, 12.8#/1000 .223, 95.28gr/ea , 73.5cases/#, 13.6#/1000.44mag, 114.38gr/ea, 61.2cases/#, 16.3#/100050bmg, 865.26gr/ea, 8.1cases/#, 123.5#/1000All weights are uncleaned fired cases with the primer remaining.Individual case weights were derived using an average of mixed brass weights (except 50bmg) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
