[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 331198, member: 2011"] I'd never notice the fps swings at higher (summer) temperatures as I shoot single shot with the loads kept in a small cooler with ice until its time for the shot. During hunting season I find it difficult to even go out when the temps are above 40s. I usually hunt alone and it may take awhile to get the carcass to town. That said, the temperature range I'm referring to with very little FPS drop is between 32 and 18 F as that has been the temps at which I have been shooting this specific load. My loads not ice'd at 80 degrees or better cause me grief. If I were to be shooting regularly at those temps I'd workup a load specific for that temp range. I like the cooler method better as I have trouble keeping track of different loads for different days. I always mess it up.:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
