[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 90079, member: 8947"] GG, your point is well taken. There may be a very slight difference (assume of course that the error in the chrony does not exceed your measured differences in velocity). How much is 1 to 2% of 3000fps? Ever get a different reading depending on where the sun is? Not enough to change the sub MOA type accuracy I want. For LR hunting, that proves to be insignificant. I would be more concerned about mirage wind or changing light conditions then my load. Ultimately, does the change affect your drop table and your ability to engage the intended target at distance? If the answer is no, you have a stable load. Compared to other powders, the hodgdon stuff is as good as it gets. At least until the military dumps their powders in a decade or two. We don't get to play with the Western stuff up here much so would be interested in feedback. Playing with Re25 and it seems to work ok so far. However, now that it is cold, staying indoors and doing renos. At least we should be happy, that we get to play with 90's technology today.
