    Thanks I'll work up a load when I run out of my 150 ELD-X

    For those that are interested I have a powder temp/stability chart I found online

    2208/Varget is listed as 0.13/deg F by my calcs this equals 0.24 FPS/Deg C
    RL15 is 1.52 FPS/Deg F___________or___________2.7 FPS/Deg C
    RL17 is 1.42/ Deg F______________or____________2.6 FPS/Deg C
    CFE223 is 1.70/ Deg F____________or____________3.1 FPS/Deg C

    But the only way to know for sure is to measure it with a chrono at different temps
