[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1718744, member: 69478"] We shot it in my cousin’s .270 WSM with 165 Matrix bullets and the 170GR. Berger EOL. It made good velocity and shot well, but it’s very temp sensitive. I would look into H1000, IMR 7977, IMR 8133, and even RL26 if you can find it. All of those, excluding RL26, are advertised and made to be “extreme” powders. They handle temp change very well. The newer RL26 is slightly faster burning than RL25 but is more temp stable. It’s not as good as the others mentioned above, but it’s very predictable and less sensitive than RL25 or some of the other older Alliant powders. [/QUOTE]
