[QUOTE="CMP70306, post: 1986384, member: 36999"] I should try Superformance as I have 8 pounds of it for a general purpose 150gr 30-06 load for our deer rifles in hunting season. My only concern is that it is very temp sensitive which is why I was going to StaBall in the first place. Not a huge deal for the deer rifles as we only shoot them in the cold but it was a major issue for my PRC as the cartridges I loaded to 3200 fps in October dropped to 3150 fps in November and spiked to 3300 fps with ejector marks on a hot day in April. Although for another 150 fps it might be worth a ladder test just to see as it did give good accuracy and SD/ES last year. Im also going to pick up the 109gr .264 AH and the 178gr .308 AH to test in the Creedmoor, PRC and .300 WM. If I use the 109gr in my dad’s 18” 6.5 PRC I should be able to get them around 3300 and keep the 400 yard +/- 2MOA PBR for his rifle. The 178gr I’m hoping to dual load in my brother’s Browning and my Proof CF switch barrel for Mausingfield with 3200+ as the goal in a 26” barrel. [/QUOTE]
