Brass weight equals number of rounds?

[Potatoes16]

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.

That is a great idea!!

Thanks!

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.
