Jackie53 I bought some digital scales and a 200 Gram weight to make sure they are accurate and I weight every type and weight head I buy just so I know what is real. I think the mold makers are just making molds by size and really don't try to make them so there weight is accurate. My 1/64 are closer to 1/48 and the 1/80 actually 1/66.

What size hooks are the jig heads poured on? To measure accuracy of a 1/64 oz., I believe you would need to test with #10 bronze Eagle Claws. There is a big difference in the gauge of the steel between a #10 and #8. If you weigh with any sickle hooks, they are definitely going to be heavier. I'll mess around tonight when I'm pouring.
