Just a quick Question
I thought I would try Reloder 22 because I had 5lbs of it. Worked up to 74gr, gun loves the stuff (Stainless A-bolt). 3,4,5 shot groups under .75 in everytime I have shot it.

I'm going to use this load in Canada this year and my question is-

How temperature sensitive is Reloder 22?

It's more temp sensitive than the Hodgdon Extreme powders, but not enough to prevent you from taking whatever game you intend on taking, that's for sure. I wouldn't worry too much about it. If you can shoot it at the temps you plan on hunting in, then you'll know where your bullet impacts and that's really the most important thing. BTW, what cartridge are you loading it in?

I have been using RL-22 in my 7MM Mag forever, and it works just find in temperatures ranging from 35 below to 125 above (F).
