Strength Variance in a Box of Reeds

In a box of reeds, do you generally find that a few if not more are a bit too soft for performance? I recently got a Gregory Smith mouthpiece and it is such a beautiful sounding and responsive piece, but it easily seems to sound a bit too buzzy with some of my reeds (3.5 V12's). I contacted Mr. Smith and he said it would be worth it to try 3.75's to see if that works better for myself, but it just got me curious if this strength variance was normal for other people in the clarinet community.
