One might well wonder why they need one blank rated 1-3 and a second rated 1-4
I suspect the high number is 1 oz over what the blank really likes. I've been told by someone who owns a custom M that it doesn't go much past 3oz and the sweet spot is closer to 2. The sweet spot on the MH I own seems to be in the high 2's- low 3's (though I'm not strong enough to really load a blank with 4oz so it might be different for others).
