    Minor cartridge weight variation question

    This question relates to a new batch of .308 Norma Magnum brass. My previous batches have varied 220-223 grains (virgin unfired unprimed) but the latest batch varies 220-225 grains.
    Q: Is this variance likely to significantly affect pressures and grouping with my existing load?
    (180gn sgk/cci250 / IMR4831 / 70.7 gn = 2900 fps / < .75moa grp)
    Note: This cartridge is very similar to 300Win mag.
