[QUOTE="roop, post: 1182821, member: 30085"] Does anyone have any experience with the temperature stability of H4895? I worked up a new hunting load for my .308win in the last 2 months using Berger 155 hunting bullets and 46gr H4895 and am wondering if I need to drop back a bit. I get acceptable accuracy (.75moa) and am well off the lands (+.100"). The primers look like they are right on the ragged edge, I definately don't think i want to go any hotter because my velocities are at or above the listed velocities for this load, but I am wondering if I need to back off a hair to allow for warmer temps in the upcoming months. The temps during workup were between 35 and 50 deg. F. Has anyone out in the internets done any testing and found a substantial increase (like 50fps or more) using H4895 in summer vs. winter?
