One powder to rule them all (30-06)?

Reloder 16 ended up buried and shouldn't be. Don't overlook it. 54.5-54.7 grains with Norma brass has been the sweet spot. Anything from 175 VLD/RDF to 178 ELDX/M to 180 partition/accubond/trophy bonded tip are netting 2750-2800fps and amazing accuracy (.5" - .3" stacked groups at 100yds all day). Temp stable and also great in 6.5 Creed on up to 338 Mag.

The "temp stable" part is what interests me. That's why I've been stuck on the H-4350 for so long. Lots of powders do well for velocity & accuracy in this versatile cartridge, but I need something that works just the same at -10 degrees on a late-season elk hunt as it does at 105 out on the prairie chasing antelope. Thanks for the tip.
