[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2281533, member: 109862"] Ag Agreed. I’m in Saskatchewan so I know about the big temperature difference between prime load development season and actual hunting season. Typically around +20 c when loading and shooting and around -10 to -25 c when deer hunting. The swings could be more too, I actually wish I had had more time to put the claims of those enduron powders to the test! Hottest we saw this summer was +38c/100f, coldest over the winter was -35c/-31f (with a windchill factor of -43). In the name of science I absolutely AM a sucker for punishment and perhaps next year if we get days in these ranges I’ll go shooting haha, see how much things change. No idea how a battery powered chronograph will cope with that kind of cold though, coldest I’ve taken it out is around -20c or so. learned about Rl22 the hard way, far and away the most temp sensitive powder I’ve worked with. A perfectly save November load froze up the .270s bolt in June. [/QUOTE]
