Friends,

I have never loaded cast bullets, but a friend recently gave me a few hundred .356x124gr to try. I checked them out on the scale and found that the bullets are weighing in at between 124gr and 128gr. Is this typical? Is it OK to load with this kind of inconsistencies? I've never really scrutinized the popular retail bullets I typically load (primarily Hornady) so I don't know if this is typical or not.

Thanks in advance for your kind, helpful responses.
