Did some loading for the 44 Mag the other night. Only had a partial pound of Enforcer left, so I decided to use it up and see how many rounds I can get out of it. Using a pocket scale to weigh the can, I projected that I could get 100.2 loads out of the remaining powder.
Started loading, weighing every 5th round. Watching the powder drop in the hopper, I started getting worried. 70 rounds. still going. Started weighing every round after 85. Powder really, really low. 96.....97.....98.....will I get all 100? No powder visible in the hopper. Whatever's in the stem is it. 99........100!!!!!
Woohoo!!!
Dumped what little was left from the hopper and the catch tray onto the scale. A whopping 3.2 grs left.
Initial guestimate pretty much bang on.
