It dependsWhat's the tablespoon holding? Butter or oregano? Sugar or salt? Molten lead or feathers?

Dry ounces are a unit of mass (or weight) and a tablespoon is a unit of volume. Therefore it depends entirely on what you are measuring -- it depends on the density. A tablespoon of lead will be much heavier than a tablespoon of feathers (although a gram of lead and a gram of feather weigh exactly the same!). Similarly, a tablespoon of butter weighs a different number of dry ounces than a tablespoon of salt.
