One move - load 5, randomly, and have a 6x6 elk step out in front of you. Murphy's Law dictates that the one chambered will be the dud.

Divide and conquer should always be high on your algorithm list. What if he gave you 9 rounds? (easier than it sounds)

The fugger gifts me only 8 reloaded rounds of 308 and then tells me one is defective and you wanna know how many moves it takes to fix it? Classic definition of don't mess with him or the ammo ever again. He's not only cheap, he's untrustworthy.

In all sincerity don't you just weigh two at a time for a total of four moves? Dave

Weigh all 8, 4 to a side. Take the lighter group of four and then split them, two on each side. Repeat with one per side.

One move. Four in left hand, four in right. Simultaneously drop rounds one at a time from each hand on scale until you see unbalance. There is your light round.
I want to know how you simultaneously do something one at a time?

you are missing one move but good answer.
3:3 has two outcomes , equal and not equal.
if they are equal do the 1:1 otherwise one of the 3 on the lighter side is the one.
1 more move!

This thread tells us two things about some posters.
1. Who is good at word problems.
2. Who has blonde hair.

No... 3:3 if equal... one of the two held back is light... 1:1 will produce the light one. If unequal... take the light three and do a 1:1 if equal then the one not placed is light.

Not if 3:3 proves to have the light round... then it takes one more move.

Actually he is correct... if the first test is uneven you only need to test two of the three to find the light one. if even you only need to test the remaining two... I screwed up.
