[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1621688, member: 96226"] The reference was to the fact that small arms powders as a category have undergone a large set of changes from the more primitive formulations of days gone by, not specifically to nitroguanidine's impact or commonness. I don't recall the specific powder I've seen it included in while reading data sheets for fun but it intrigued me to find out about it when I did. If I recall correctly the last reference I saw to it was it being included in single digit percentages by weight. Nitroguanidine is said to accomplish the flash reduction, flame temperature reduction and a reduction in chamber pressure for all that; which is like magic when you think about it, so I'd assume (yes I know about assuming) it has to have some effect on how it responds to things like environmental/ammo temperature.
