    Well I've had a break through & finally found the missing 6 grains of water

    Here it is.



    Here it is pictured next to a 375 Lunatic & 338 DCM



    It is a 50 cal Lunatic not a 375....

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    This is a copy paste of the text you sent me.

    Just formed a piece of jamerson lunatic into DCM brass what an arse to do ... It holds 172.9grains of water so there is about 1 grain difference not 6 .... All BS ....

    Since then it has been fired with a projectile in it & not just fireformed it has grown a little as you would expect from a case that went through what this one did to be formed...

    Like for like in the same brass they hold about the same amount of water.....half a grain either way is very easy to do, so measuring down the case would be even more inaccurate.

    Do you have a piece of 375 DCM & Lunatic brass so you can see for yourself ?

    This all started because GD said his 375 Lunatic was the biggest 375/408 Cheytac imp around & said it was 179 grains of water to prove it was the biggest.

    We knew the 375 Cheytac imp I had held about 173 grains of water & a standard 375 Cheytac held about 167, we realised it was extremely unlikely for the 375 Lunatic to be 12 grains bigger in water capacity than the standard 375 Cheytac, but without brass we couldn't say for sure, with brass we can say for sure than the 375 Lunatics water capacity is not 179 grains of water as GD said, it is not even close.

    Like Chris pointed out we are flogging a dead horse.....time to move on & shoot these big rifles at distances they were meant to be shot, beyond 2000

    We are not flogging a dead horse Greg you are.

    GD said correctly that his 375 improved is the biggest in NZ. It is bigger than the DCM even if only be one grain.
