[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1231665, member: 74902"] It really depends on the powder used. 30 deg. is not a huge temp swing. If it's an extreme powder it will probably shoot at the same speed. If it's a temp sensitive Alliant powder it will probably lose ~1.5 FPS per degree or about 45~50 FPS. So plug that FPS change into whatever ballistic wizbang you're using and you'll know. [/QUOTE]
