[QUOTE="stx, post: 1631701, member: 21006"] Barrel on my 280 is 24”......I haven’t had any issues with temperature but haven’t used or tested it in temps over 85 yet. I’ve been working up several loads with it lately with temps in the high 70s to low 80s. I worked up a load for my 6.5x284 last fall at 90+ degree temps and didn’t chrono those loads again during the season when temps were lower......at that time I hadn’t yet heard about possible issues or I would have chronoed them to check velocity.....I did shoot it at 35-40 degrees out to 600 yds at paper and my drops corresponded with the velocity I had in my drop chart, so if the velocity was lower in the cooler temps, it wasn’t much!
