Just got some F14 forks s/h and they're 400g, when the claimed weight is 330g (that's including a bung and crown race, but also cut so shouldn't be much different). That seems way over - it's more than 20% more than claimed. Are Deda weights really that inaccurate, or is there something else wrong here?

I was assuming claimed weights were fairly accurate nowadays when I bought them - wouldn't have got them if I'd known (old forks were pretty much spot on).
No scales on the trails
