[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 396322, member: 2011"] montana native, I'll not hate what winmag said (he's always raggin' on me about somethin' :)) as he is correct. 4831 just doesn't get the velocity that other powders do. The disappointing thing is that back in the day when 60 gr 4831 was booked at 3012 with the 130 class bullet, I shot tons of mule deer, chucks and coyotes at all kinds of distances for many years. I then bought a chronograph and was really bummed that I was barely breaking 2900 MV. The rifle be came suddenly useless. Once I got'r stoked up to proper velocities I was a happy camper again.:rolleyes: Back then Norma 205 (which is RL-22 that is swept off of the floor where 205 is made:D thus the temperature sensitivity) was what brought the velocity back.
