Some physical properties of horse gram grains (Macrotyloma uniflorum) were determined as a function of moisture content in the range of 8.66% to 20.76% dry basis (d.b.). Percentage increase in length, width and thickness was found to be 9.01%, 16.90% and 6.84% respectively; whereas, grain size and sphericity were increased from 4.18 to 4.63 mm and 0.708 to 0.731 mm with increase in moisture content. The thousand grain mass increased from 29.8 to 34.10 g, while bulk density and true density decreased from 855 to 689 kg m-3 and 1237 to 1102 kg m-3 respectively due to increase in moisture content. The value of bulk porosity increased linearly from 30.80% to 37.48%. Results also revealed that the terminal velocity and angle of repose were increased from 8.45 to 10.52 m s-1 and 8.66o to 20.76o respectively. The static coefficient of friction, for different test materials, varied from 0.190 to 0.532 in the specified moisture level.
