[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 1183278, member: 8358"] I have used H4895 in several cartridges and the only time I had an issue with temperature was when shooting prairie dogs with the 22/250rem. I had them loaded at the top end and they were fine when it was 65-70 degrees out but when the temp soared to 100+ I had a protruding primer and then a blown primer on the next round. I backed the charge off .4 grain and didn't see any signs of excessive pressure, but I don't think I have shot it in that kind of heat again. I don't believe this load would blow primers in high temps. [/QUOTE]
