[QUOTE="The Oregonian, post: 1528565, member: 51405"] I agree with the above poster on accuracy over velocity. I would check to see where you are in the node, however. That is, if you are still in your sweet spot but now on the edge of it, you may want to move back to the middle. If you hunt in weather 30 degrees colder, will that take you below your accuracy window? So I would test loads a few tenths below where you are and also to the upper edge of your summer mode to see how things perform. I would let that dictate whether or not I adjusted anything for your go to load. In other words, just make sure you have an accuracy window on either side rather than trying to squeeze 50 fps out of it. I am a self taught reloader and load developer but that is my $.02. [/QUOTE]
