Rx 15 and cold weather

I am wondering if I need to adjust my load using Rx 15 for real cold weather? I am loading for my 470 NE,and Texas is real cold this week end

how sensitive is this powder to temperature change ?

I have used R15 in my 45-70 load, my 7mm08 and my 375. Where I live it gets colder than any part of Texas. I work up and develop loads in the spring, summer and shoot and hunt in the fall and winter. We have a temp change of over 100 degreese between summer and winter.

I have never noticed a diffrence in FPS or other measurable performance.

Good luck, I hope this helps.
