[QUOTE="bigedp51, post: 1463187, member: 28965"] The number below to the right of the type powder is the fps change for each degree of temp change. The single base Hodgdon's Extreme Powders are the least sensitive to temp change. Example of double and single base powders, the military switched from RL15 to IMR-4064 in their 7.62 long range sniper ammunition. This was due to the temp extremes in Iraq and Afghanistan.
