Weight of RL 5lb empty jug?

[pdog06]

As the title states, does anyone have an empty 5lb jug of Reloder that they could tell me the weight of?
I am wanting to weigh mine, which is not empty, so I can determine how much powder I have left in it.

Thanks In advance

I can tell you an 8lb RL jug empty is 12oz. Perhaps that gets you close enough until someone gets your the exact number?

Thanks.

My 5lb jug weighs 5.51lb so I’m pretty sure it is still a full jug. Couldn’t remember if I used any of it, and this one is the only 5lb jug of RL that I have. All the rest of mine are 1lb bottles.

I have an older, small-cap 5-pounder that R17 came in that weighs 7.6 ounces; a newer large-cap 5-pounder weighs 7.3 ounces.

EDIT--BTW those weights include each cap.

Ok thank you for that info . Mine is the large cap.
