VH with 24" barrels - cut?

[DGL]

If 6 - 8 oz. is lost due to striking, does that mean barrels stamped 3lb 2oz would actually weight 2lb 10-12oz?

Dan,
I just checked my 24" barrels and the actual weight is now 2# 13oz with a loss due to striking of 5oz. I would expect barrels 6" longer would likly loose a little more.
