[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 345757, member: 10"] Liltank, Yes, two different companies. I have used Mag Pro a bit, mainly in the short mags from 6.5 to 300. Worked well but did not test them over a variaty of temps to get those results. It did perform well accuracy wise though. I would not give up on Ramshot powders. I have used them quite a bit and have been very happy with them. Remember the chambering I am using, quite extreme. In a lesser chambering, you would likely not see this amount of velocity spreads. Also, remember that I was getting the most variation at +1200 yards. Most rifles, including most of my own rifles will not be used for big game hunting at this range. At 750, 880 and 1008 yards, yes, in the warmer temps the shots did land a bit higher. That said, every shot would have easily and cleanly landed in the vitals of any big game animal. Shooting at anything less then 1/2 mile was simply boring. I hate to say that and give the wrong impression but it was. Do not give up on it, give here a try and it may still perform very well for you. Its good to have a ball powder for the mid burn rate ranges so do not give up on it before trying. [/QUOTE]
