Gravity sample

[Nimrod3388]

What should I expect the gravity to be when I take a sample of runoff from my partial mash?
recipe is as follows:
4# maris otter
1/3# turbo vienna
1/3# flaked rice
1/3# munich 10
1/4# flaked wheat

gravity sample was 1.052 at 60ish degrees.

You didn't mention the volume of runoff and that has a lot to do with what I'd expect the gravity to be.

runoff was 8 qts.
