I will state however, that if you measure internal case capacity, you really need to do either 1) with brass fired in your gun and not resized or 2) Full length resized and shoulder bumped back with the same die.
Just randomly measuring the internal capacity of cases that are not in the same "state" doesn't result in a valid comparison. You need to aim for external consistency. Either through firing in your gun, or FL resizing with the same FL die.
BTW, there was this greek dude who did some cool experiments in 246bc about volume of solids, displacement of liquids and what not. His name was Archimedes. Google it if you are willing to approach this scientifically....... His writings and discoveries are considered bedrock to the fundamentals of physics.
