Is there any way to figure out exactly what the tongue weihht will be, assuming the trailer is loaded to the maximum and the weight is distributed evenly. Like, what determines if its 12% or if its 15% -- trailer type? Hitch brand? Or is the only way to actually load it and measure it? (ie. Why dont trailer manufacturers list a "loaded tongue weight" as opposed to a dry hitch weight?

Forgot to touch on the tongue weight questions
It should be in the 12% to 15% of the trailers actual weight.
Orientation should be level at it's highest pointing. Preference it to point slightly down below level
The trailer will follow best with the above conditions.
