The T/C view powder measure is a measure of volume not weight whereas the RCBS measures the weight of the powder they are not the same for example 100 gr of 777 by volume when weighed will read about 70gr. Most loads are given in volume.........
Thanks, that's kind of what I was wondering, but then again at the same time it seemed like grains was a measurement of weight so it seemed like it should be the same. I guess not. I am hoping try some loose powder out next time I get to the range and see how it shoots.
