[QUOTE="NWmissouriman, post: 935441, member: 45260"] Thanks for your input! I just figured I'd be better off with the higher BC of the 180s, but after reading your post I'm glad I didn't backorder a boatload of them. I guess the best thing to do is buy a few of the 168s and 180s and test them. I don't have my hopes up now though for the 180s. I forgot to mention what my barrel was. Its a Shilen Match Grade Select 27 1/2" 1:9 twist Stainless Steel. So, I should be able to use either. Temperature sensitivity is probably a big issue for where I'm at. My hunting is done at a big temperature spread, -20 to 60. That's a huge difference:D, you never know what you're going to get here. Also, I do most of my shooting and sighting in during July-September and its anywhere from 70-105. Basically I practice when its nice and hunt when it is brutal, so whatever will work best. I'm sure there isn't a powder that works the same from -20 to 105:rolleyes:, but whichever one will have the least difference is most ideal. Once again, thanks, you have the wheels in my heading turning! [/QUOTE]
