[QUOTE="ndking1126, post: 1666513, member: 26820"] Over on another website (6.5guys) they have a 10 shot load development that essentially argues the velocity of the bullet and not the charge amount or powder type is really what makes the load accurate. They argue any powder that (safely) duplicates a velocity will see an accuracy node at that velocity. So for your example, the additional 60* of temperature created more pressure which likely increased velocity. Based on my understanding, according to them, if you lower your charge amount just enough to get the velocity back where it was when colder, you're accuracy will return. Can anyone comment on this? I'm fishing for answers for the OP's second question, I guess. Haha. Of course some powders are a lot more temp stable than others, but it almost seems like gas for the car - you need a summer blend and a winter blend. [/QUOTE]
