Never trust the bushing chart to throw exactly what it says. ALWAYS test your bushings. I like to throw 3-5 charges and dump them back in the hopper. Then I'll throw 3 or 5 charges and weigh the entire charge, then divide it by 3 or 5 and look at the average. Then I'll weigh the next 5 individual charges. That way you'll get a very good idea of what the bushing is throwing. While doing all the testing for the 8g loads, I did not find a single bushing that threw exactly what the chart had listed. They're usually under the listed charge (lawyers are a PITA).
