I created a spreadsheet and recorded the weights of four tins of these MKIIs. Here are the results of those four tins combined. I have separated them into 0.20 grain batches as seen in the spreadsheet and placed those batches back into the tins. It feels better to me to have some knowledge now of what's in each tin.
Here is a fifth tin to further compare with.
I don't have any groups to gander over just yet (waiting on a Neil Clague LDC to arrive), but I have ran a couple of quick strings while fine tuning just to see what the results would be. Mind you this was from a previous sort down to only 0.30 grain batches. I don't expect the string to look much different with sorting down to 0.20 grain batches, but it does leave a little room for human and weight scale errors, which should keep me near to under 0.30 grain batches.
I will say I have never had so many duplicates before, ever, so it looks promising. The guns tune can also be seen here. Notice once the reg settled down from a fresh fill, and before dropping off the reg, the duplicates just kept coming.
To me it was worth the time spent to know what's in the tins going forward. I have been popping squirrels at 75 yards with one shot each with unsorted, straight out of the tin prior to this, but still it is better to not guess what's in each tin.
