[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 846183, member: 48043"] rl17, ar comp, rl33, and rl50 are not swedish powders like the other rl series, they are swiss. I haven't had any more/ less trouble with rl powders in temp. swings than any other powder. You can't take the variations out of the barrel, primer, case, bullet, air density, and your shoulder (cold weather = more clothes and less resistance to recoil, hence less velocity) so I'm not so sure bothering to use a brand just because it is slightly more temp stable is worth my time. I've loaded rl7, 15, 17, 19, 22, 25, 33, and 50 in the last year. My total Hodgdon choices are h4895 (which I'll replace with I 4895 when the h is out), h4350, superformance, and retumbo. [/QUOTE]
