This is exactly what I was taught by Master Sergeant Lambert (who, BTW, has a brother named Jack who chunks a football passably well) at SOTIC on Smoke Bomb Hill in 1987. When he and his buddies shot for beer at 1000yd though, they weighed the charges when they made mexican match out of M118 and 190gr Sierras.

I've always heard that Tubb shoots nothing but Dillon measure dropped charges....except at 600yd.

I think there might be a lesson or two there.
