[QUOTE="AZ82New, post: 3010635, member: 120858"] There’s a lot to like about the concept of a double base, temp stable ball powder. It should produce exceptional velocities in certain cartridges where you just can’t get enough stick powder in the case. As far as temp stability, it seems like the Staball line (I’m assuming similar technology for Grand), is actually pretty good. Jonny’s reloading did a test on staball 6.5 and I think it came out around .40-.50 fps per degree. That’s very usable performance. It’s not going to replace the Hodgdon Extreme powders in F class. However, for hunting? It will totally work. Out to fairly long range, I doubt you would notice a difference between the two and will likely appreciate a velocity gain. I for one am pretty excited about where things are headed. [/QUOTE]
