I'd pick up 2 packs of them, in hopes of getting the same batch#. Of course, I just use new bearings when I repack. With my bad eyes, it's just much simpler than trying to clean and then inspect them with a magnifying glass.

I do kind of wonder how much "worse" the higher numbers actually are. They can't be too bad without grinding things down, considering that the ARE BALL BEARINGS!
