[QUOTE="lever-hed, post: 258980, member: 11667"] I experienced similar thing with RE-22 and CCI BR2 primers, fired in 20 deg F weather. This is due to the inhyerent temp sensitivity of the powder. in other words, when you trigger you actually hear the firing pin 'click' the primer (actually only very faint) then ignition. This does not happen in warmer temperatures, ie above 25 to 32 in my experience- in warmer temps yo woant catch the 'click' sounds . Note I have never had a CCI primer fail to ignite the powder . Try chronying in colder temps you will see a lower velocity generally, but its not a big deal, I've had a good deal of luck in accuracy with this powder. Try also IMR 4831 or H-4831 or 'sc'. ps. if this bothers you firing in colder weather switch primers to Federal, if you can find em. Have fun [/QUOTE]
