[QUOTE="longgunshooter, post: 118167, member: 6004"] ....finally got out over the weekend to try some accubonds and was pleasantly surprised to see the same results as many of you have expierenced [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]. Gun is a 300wm Rem700 Sendero w/a 25" barrel. Leupy 6.5X20LR. nothin fancy, had the action/lugs lapped and brake installed a while back nothing else....oh, i skim bedded it a month ago... I shot six different groups at 100yds. Three with IMR 4831,70gr,71gr,72gr, and three with R-22,69gr,70gr,71gr. The best results being with 72gr of IMR (.545 three shots) and 71gr R-22 (.520three shots). The R-22 group was a perfect vertical string (barrel heating i guess) and the IMR was purty little cloverleaf [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. didnt have a chrony for the fps but pressure signs are minimal(minor primer flattening/no cratering/no ejector marks) ...even out shot the guy next to me w/a 6mmBR... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]anyways... heres my question for some of you...what load do i go with to hunt deer this october? i have heard about R-22's sensitivity to temp but exactly how bad is it?? what about the IMR 4831 is it temp sensitive too. I have loaded up ten of each of these two loads to run across a chrony this weekend to see which is the most consistent, but i would like to ear more about each of these powders and which is more temp stable... [i]preferrably from expierenc, not what the mfr says[/i] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] Thanks in advance for the input... [/QUOTE]
