I finally did what I wanted to do for a while, weighing 12 oz empties, to see if some were stronger/more reliable than others. Here is what came out of my small sample test, from empties on hand:
Harpoon, Victory, Red Hook = 199-202 g
Lakefront = 219 g
Sam Adams = 217 g
Generic freecycled to me, probably LHBS-bought = 244 g, quite a bit more
Assuming heavier equals stronger, equals better bottling experience, I now know what to prefer.
