I can't speak to the variability inweight of the game balls... I only have one left that has not been used.

If your tuning is significantly changed by a <5 gram difference i weight I would be wary... our shooter was not that picky.

That is what we got too. Our green gopher balls were 340 grams so we avoided tuning with those. We had one blue weigh 280 and another was 330 (which we excluded too). The rest were fine.
