[QUOTE="edge, post: 160306, member: 5030"] IMO, muzzle velocity increase is due to the temperature sensitivity of the powder. Long range retained velocity is due generally to more moisture in the air which is lighter than air with low humidity. Airplanes may easily require 50% more runway to take-off in the Summer than they do in the Winter to compensate for air density. edge. [/QUOTE]
