    I'ld love to see how close Hornady keeps the weight tolerances.
    The only other bulk 62gr I ever found have been Armscorp, and they were all over the board in mass.
    I expect good things from Hornady.
    I split a batch of these with a friend using my digital kitchen scale. After gram-to-grain calculations, I got 62.54 gr as the average weight, and who knows how precise the scale is. I suspect you'd be pleased however.

    They still offer a 500qty in the 68gr but only 250 in the 75gr. I could bring in both in wanted.

    I've been using the 55grs for so long it never occurred to me to look around for a 62.
    Hornady have been selling 62s in the US for years

    They will be fine in a 1:9 as well.
