[QUOTE="Wrenches, post: 2483131, member: 93135"] How did we ever kill anything before we were told of temp insensitive? The IMR line of powders have been around since the 20's,30's and 40's. All those GI's and Airmen were using temp sensitive powders where the temp at 25000 feet was 35-45 below. Sure shot down a lot of axis planes and soldiers. IMR's were used in most all combat arms 30-06 used 4895, 50BMG used 5010 and the twenty MM's used 4831. I just don't buy into this current temp stuff as being any kind of a factor. Most big game is taken at less than 200 yard where a 100 feet per second makes very little difference. I believe it is more selling hype then needed bag big game. JMO. [/QUOTE]
