[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 435287, member: 8358"] This has nothing to do with temp sensitivity but I found that loading heavily compressed loads of H1000 gave mixed results. By that I mean when I first loaded some compressed charges of H1000 in my 270Win they would shoot into a bug hole group and then after the loaded cartridges would set around for a month or more the accuracy would start to fall off some, and then this weekend I shot some that had been loaded around the first of the year and the accuracy was just plain horrible. I pulled the bullets on those that I had left and the powder was so hard I had to use a pick to break it up to get it out of the cases. I believe the deteriorating accuracy was due more to lack of sufficient ignition than anything else. I also tried some of the same bullets loaded with an uncompressed load of H4831SC with stunning results of both accuracy and velocity. BTW, I have heard somewhere else that the 300Win performed well with Ramshot Magnum. [/QUOTE]
