Total mass excluding packaging...?

This has to be wrong. The correct definition is no doubt the weight of an amount of TNT that produces an equivalent effect, otherwise 10 lbs plutonium and 10 lbs of firecrackers would have the same "net explosive weight" and the measure would not be useful enough to rate a Wikipedia entry. 84.227.240.112 (talk) 18:49, 4 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

It's the weight of explosives so (unless the packaging is explosive) the weight of packaging is excluded. What's plutonium got to do with it - it isn't (chemically) explosive. DexDor (talk) 05:31, 5 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
