[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 1062820, member: 63138"] The key to using RL-22 or any similar temp sensitive powder is to develop the load at the same temp you are going to use it in. If you do that, no worries. If you don't do that, your really accurate load that you carefully tuned to shoot bug holes will shift off the node, drop or raise velocity to some value way off what you are expecting and you will be wondering what the heck happened to your rifle. It doesn't take a lot of temp shift. I found with RL-25 a 20 degree drop in temp gave me the same velocity as if I took 3 grains of powder out of the case! Not good to say the least. Right now I am looking forward to getting my hands on some RL-23. It should be top notch. [/QUOTE]
