[R-390] R-390 slugs

Oohhhhhhhhh.... another thread slipping off-topic.  This is what 
I love about the R-390 list.  There is always so much to learn
from and about our fellow list members...

I use a LEE Safety Scale.  I have tried a few, almost bought
the Dillon electronic scale, but found that the LEE was as
accurate as any, and near impossible to screw up with.  I do
my development on the LEE single stage system, but once I
pick a load, I do the bulk work on a Dillon RL-550B.

You are right, it might be possible to weigh the slugs.  BUT...
if the spring is not EXACTLY the same in each slug, it might
have an impact on the results.  Dunno.

Since I do not have a spare rack, and I am not willing to take
the working unit apart, I will have to wait for your research.

Good luck.
