In addition, you can get a good estimate for the average weight of a pellet on a 2 dp scale - if you weigh say 100 to 200 pellets, and divide the measured weight by the number of the pellets. You just need to make the weight of the item being weighed to be huge in relation to the scale uncertainty. This method will not give you any of the variance in individual pellet weights, but will give you a good estimate of the average weight.

Have fun
