26oz is 27.3 on the scale w/lizard skin
28oz is 28.5 on the scale w/stock grip
Steel's have always been awful with weighting. I had a 2012 26oz white steel and 2012 28oz white steel, the 26oz weighed more than the 28oz and they were both in the 28's. Demarini 30's tend to come in less than 29oz as well.
