[QUOTE="Lonewolf74, post: 1415021, member: 96274"] I am going to test more powders to try and find a more stable powder that still gives me the velocity I'm looking for. The issue I have right now is i did a quick load work up because it was a new lot of RL26 and was noticeably faster burning than the first lot I had. I did this load work around Christmas and it was cold around 1-2 degrees f. It seemed very dialed in though .75" at 300 yrds and avg velocity of 2960 with ES of 4 (over 5 shots). Now yesterdays with it 40 degrees out it had an avg velocity of 2995 with an ES of 40 and 2" group at 300. Group size could of been more me and dealing with some mirage but the ES went to crap. So either the load wasn't as dialed as I thought or the powder is that sensitive. [/QUOTE]
