Welcome to the Forum!!

And YES there are many of us who weight out our powder charges, and store them in air-tight tubes for range work and for hunting.

And so that other's who may be reading our posts on this subject, we usally use some definitions for Grains by Weight and Grains by Volume like this:

For BH209 Powder-- 70gW(Using Reloading Powder Scales)=100gV(Using Brass or Plastic Volumetric powder measures)

Where we have taken our Volume Powder Measures-Brass or Clear Plastic, and we throw 3 or 4 charges by volume, THEN weigh them on our reloading powder scales, take the average of those weights and then fill our tubes with that weight.
