It's a good first approximation considering the rule of thumb percentage but my FW doesn't follow the 25% rule of thumb. According to the yellow stickers my camper weighs 8020lbs with a 1120lb pin weight. I called KZ to be informed that the weights do include the group 24 battery and two empty 30lb propane bottles. So, adding 60lbs to the pin weight gives me 1180 dry pin. 1180 is ~15% of 8080.
Most of my interior storage is either above or behind the axles except under the bed and closet but there is not much storage room there. Basement storage has the greatest affect on increasing pin weight ratio for me. Needless to say, we travel light.
