I do weigh my cast balls and separate them by weight. If they are too far off they go back to the melting pot. But normally they are pretty good.
ok thanks i was just curious? i did cast a bunch of .570's yesterday i still have to weigh the rest of them i made the mistake of adding lead from different sources and it threw the weight off a tad. but i'm going to see if my big boar shoot's any different with the lighter or heavier balls ? thanks !
