[QUOTE="esshup, post: 2925088, member: 11101"] I know I am way late to the party. My experience in the cold (-8°F) and the Berger 180g VLD is good. 708 yards, half dollar size hole on exit. 5200' elevation. Double check your fps at the muzzle in that cold weather. I had to adjust 2 moa up for those cold temps vs. +40°F zero @ 300 yds @ 6,000' elevation. @40°F, 6,000' elevation the MV was 3,250 fps. (Well, it may have been a bit less since I didn't have a chrono there), but the poi only had to be adjusted 1/4 moa from when I zero'd it @ 785' elevation. WC 872 powder. [/QUOTE]
