    Powder stability

    Just seeing if anyone has done some testing and knows the fps change per degree for reloader 26 or ar 2225.
    Cheers

    AR2225 is the same as Hodgon Retumbo, you might find more info on that.
    Heres some info supplied by Hodgon https://hodgdon.com/wp-content/uploa...ensitivity.pdf
    I imagine AR2225 will be fairly stable, any of the ADI powders that are equivalent to a Hodgon Extreme powder should be pretty well temp insenstivie.

    I've never tested RL26 but have heard from a reliable source that it does change a bit with temperature, so you need to be careful in hot weather.
    rod, Roarless20 and Magnetite like this.
