But once I include the temp sensitivity into my derating calculation for a useful load, Re17 is down with the rest of the powders and trajectory that changes with temp.

So I never used Re17 for anything after that, due to my wide temperature range hunting.


Does this make anyone think of H 205 ?

I have used H 205 and still have 1 lb. I loved it in 30-06 w/165 gr bullets. I never had a problem but others did and H discontinued its production.
