[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1533388, member: 87243"] I tried H1000, it was about 30-50 fps slower, and not quite as accurate in this specific rifle. Yours may like it though. You may consider it if you hunt in extreme temperature swing areas, or travel to vastly different climates to hunt, as some people report temp sensitivity with RL 26, though in my .260 AI, this 7mm mag, and two 6.5x284's we have not noticed enough velocity swing to be concerned about. Our hunting temps range from single digits during late season elk to about 80ish degrees for August pronghorn hunting. Most the bad reports I have seen are people seeing pressure spikes over 85ish degrees. Again though, I personally have not experienced this during summer prairie dog shooting, where temps can get a touch over 90 here in Wyoming. I would get a load with Reloder 26, and try it in your hottest temps to see if there are any issues. I don't think you will, but I have been wrong before and certainly will again. [/QUOTE]
