I'm sticking out my neck here, but I think that for Ringo's spouts, some are in drams (the English?), some in grammes (the French?) and maybe some in grains. Probably the spouts graded 65 to 80 are grains, the spouts graded 8 to 9 to 10 are grammes.
Beautifully complicated.
Yes U.S. measure altho I believe the English used grains in the 19th century.

(...) You mentioned "drams", which in my world is all about Scotch single malt whisky.I don't mind having a wee dram sometimes myself, usually rather Drambuie than whisky though...
