Unfortunately, there is not a simple answer: it depends on what you mean by "more precise".
Both have three significant figures and to that extend they are equally precise.
However, the maximum possible percentage errors in the two measurements are approximately 100*0.05/42.3 = 0.12% and 100*0.05/35.6 = 0.14%, respectively. On that basis, 42.3 ounces is more precise in relative terms. Also, the measurement units are smaller for 42.3 ounces so in absolute terms the measurement is more precise.
