Shrinkage. Significant shrinkage. It’s common knowledge.

I was avoiding the much more sinister 'who's going to miss 1% of the cable at
that distance' and when you do that with enough cable the beancounters get
happy.
Like the automakers marketing the new bubbly styling where there is no
headroom as 'aerodynamic' but in reality they just get to save x sqft of steel
per car by making the dimensions all smaller and rounded, but they still charge
the same price.

I just got some 5000' spools of Belden 7919a cable in, and looking at the
cable foot markings from both ends of the cable, they're all about 20' short.
When I get 1000' spools, they've always been spot on (as far as matching the
cable markings) Is this just the discrepancy in the tolerance of the cable
markings at that distance?
