C&D, and I'm sure other battery makers, have a withdrawl tube that 
extends almost halfway to the bottom of the cells case. It allows you to 
pull up acid from near the center of the case where the water/acid mix 
is near it's 'average' strength in case it's not well mixed. 
Those tubes have to be in the corners because it's impossible to 
retrieve acid  via the fill holes except from the very top, the watered 
down part of the mixture. If the cells have tubes, they should be used 
unless the battery has been fully charged and allowed to sit unused for 
several hours, the 'recommended' way to check SG.
Another good thread...
