Powder temp “stability” chart???

H4831SC is about half of Varget

Indeed. Interesting that SC is so much more temp stable than the long cut flavor.

You look at the numbers and hodgons not fibbing or misleading about it being temperate insensitive. H4350 and you could shoot at -20 and at 100 degrees and only see less than a 20fps change. That's better than I thought it was. 4831sc is less than 10 fps for that same crazy temp spread. But reloader 25 would be a 190 fps difference

This is what I’m talking about. Some of the older powders that aren’t included in the newer line ups being advertised as temp stable are actually pretty good and some are terrible.
4064 is one I like and is pretty well recommended in lots of load data yet it looks like it’s not temp stable. The chart shows BLC-2 as being stable and that’s not at all what I believed and have read???
Win 760 and 296 are a couple of my favorites for 44 and 30-06 and have been really good to me. Not temp friendly and I know for a fact I’ve shot both in single digits up into the 90’s and never had issues despite being hotter loads.
I’m really digging learning about this but kinda curious if it amounts to much in my applications.
Great information though

You know, your informal range & shooting days are chock full of information IF you pay attention & take some simple but detailed notes.

Simple things such as temperature, humidity, rain, sleet snow, sunny.
Also your load data with powder, charge, primer, bullet.

Simple note taking can develop a pretty good dope card.

Absolutely right!
I’ve been too lazy. I’m definitely going to start taking notes. There’s a couple of loads that I’m really interested in developing further.

I’ll probably end up being one of “those guys “ .
Won’t leave home without my Kestrel and chronograph.
