Default Remington CoreLoks / Diff from MidwayUSA ?

Hey guys,

I bought some remington core loks from Midway and was surprised to see that there were packaged by midway. I'm only using them to fire form brass but I decided to weigh them anyway. Without doing any calculation I would say that the 180gr bullets had a variance of 2.5 grains. I was pretty surprised.

So my question is, has anyone ever weighed remington core loks that come in remington package? Is the variance as high as when I'm seeing?

Just for comparision I weighted some Sierra Game Kings and the variance was in the .2-.4gr. For the price difference I would consider using those to fire form.

While we are on the subject what is a good cheap bullet to use for fire forming brass?

I paid $18 for 100 core loks.

Thanks

Tom
