Another Heads Up
After moving I found 600 rounds of .223 ammo. Yippee!
Started to use it up at my bench when I decided to weigh one of the bullets.
Now I have to weigh all of them.
The sealed bags (Winchester) say 22 cal 55 gr. FMJBT
Unfortunately 3 to 5 out of each bag is 62+ grains.

Were they loaded rounds that you are pulling or just the bullets?
