About Grains
A grain (gr) is the smallest unit in both the avoirdupois and troy weight systems, equal to exactly 64.79891 milligrams. Originally defined as the mass of a single grain of barley or wheat from the middle of an ear, it has been a standard of weight since ancient times. Today, grains are used to weigh gunpowder charges and bullets (a standard .308 rifle bullet weighs 168 gr), pharmaceutical preparations in apothecary compounding, and the fineness of gold alloys. Arrowhead and fishing hook weights are also specified in grains.
About Ticals

In Myanmar, the traditional kyat weight system used ticals as a primary unit.
