[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2666673, member: 4191"] Lots of folk have reported increased MV at colder temps. Some have only chilled their ammo down to cold temps. In fact most haven't chilled their barrels. Most seem to only chill their ammo. My powder temperature sensitivity testing always involved both barrel and ammo cooled down to the same temperatures. When testing during the summer, I've placed both rifle and ammo in the deep chest freezer overnight to test @ -5F during outdoor temps of 50F. But having reviewed many many threads over the years on this subject (going back to 2005), I conclude most guys only chill or heat up their ammo when testing powder temperature sensitivity. Too much time involved for most to wait to chill their rifles down. No patience... [/QUOTE]
