Hey all,
I am separating my brass and realllllly don't want to count all of it. Anyone have a table/chart that they use that corresponds weight=number of casings?
I am using zip loc bags to store (for now).
Casings 5.56, .308, 9mm, .38, .40 and .45
Once fired and not de primed btw....
Thanks!!

I’ve never seen a chart, but I’m sure it exists.
You could weigh 1 lb of brass and then count how many pieces are in that 1 lb, then weigh it all and do the math.

Re: Brass weight equals number of rounds?
Even Jethro should be able to figure it out if you have a scale and passed your 3rd grade guzinta's. Just remember 7000 grains per pound, weigh a case and do a little math.
