    Yes 2217 is the leader when it comes to temp, thats why the Yanks like it so much as they can be shooting in very hot weather one hunt and bellow freezing level the next.
    But 2225 isn't to bad either and in the north island where we don't get mad temp swings can be very useful in a 338 edge giving a little velocity increase, should you try 2225 if it was me I would give it a try and post up your findings I'm sure they will be glowing
    1000yds is fun, 1500yds is getting interesting, 2000yds is exciting, 2500yds will blow your mind
