[QUOTE="TR1Hemi, post: 2483564, member: 122752"] Maybe "pet" loads should not be made in a season 30* cooler than the hunting season, and "maybe, just maybe" that pet load should not be at or above max when you make it during cool weather. Develop a cold season hunting load on a cold early spring day when hunting is done. Make that prairie dog load on one of those hot indian summer days in late Sep when the dog towns are all shot up. Make that hog load in the dead of summer, and find a "node" a step down from the one you found at or over max. Notice how I did not say anything bad about temp insensitive powders, start with those, but develop the load under conditions that you will use it. If you find one that works, great, if not try an old school powder. If the weather caused you to have blown primers, I am betting that load was over max when you made it. If you NEED that extra 100FPS, you are shooting the wrong caliber. How is that for a first post? lol [/QUOTE]
