[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 893716, member: 10429"] Hybrid 100V....I have been loading the 100v for the last 3 years in my 6.5 and I can say this about it. It not very temp stable in my opinion, and as staited eairler it does pressure spike quickly. I shoot 49.5 grains in my gun with 140vld's. This is max for mine at 65 degrees and below which 65 degrees is the top of the temp. At 70 degrees I get resistance on the bolt lift. If it creeps up to 75 the bolt lift gets tighter. Also my volicity changes quite abit. At 75 degrees it went to 2928 to 2935. At the lower temp like hunting weather 40ish I am getting 2840 to 2845. I have not chono it at any temp below 42 degrees but my drops were still working when out shooting at 33 to 35 degrees. But with this said I am going to try Retumbo this year. I think it might give me some more speed and a more of a stable temp powder which will work out for the best. I still will use the 100V since I have 5 pounds of it for target shooting and still some hunting. [/QUOTE]
