[QUOTE="Jerry M, post: 1471841, member: 6330"] Correct Superformance is ball. I don't get wrapped up in the temperature sensitivity stuff. I do my load development in hot weather; only use safe loads; and have turrets on my scopes to adjust the cross hairs when going from 90* to 30* shooting sessions. There are just too many other variables: A missed 5 mph wind gust, 2 grain difference in the case capacity; hand pressure on the forearm, etc, etc, etc. I used ball powder at one of the Allegheny Sniper Challenge matches year ago, where they supplied the rifle, scope and ammunition. The .308 Win was loaded with BLC-2. It shot very well for good shooters. I have shoot (hit) prairie dogs out to 550ish yards using .223 with ball. US Military has used ball powders for decades. Pick a safe load and practice. [/QUOTE]
