The "Molded Body" and "Precision" Inductors produce identical footprints.
 
The Precision would be called out in the datasheet.
 
If you use the STEP export, the 3D Models look slightly different.

Not really a specific Library Expert question, but I can't find any info about this anywhere.
What is the difference between precision and no-precision molded inductor? When to use which?
Seems to create the same footprint.

Does anyone have any info about this?
