Down here on the border in S.Texas, R-26 can't stand the heat, only time we can use good R-26 loads is mid-winter, R-16, H-4350, or IMR-4451, work better. Rio7
Can't you just work up a load in the heat? What am I missing? I wonder if the 153 A-Tips will even fully stabilize in the 1:8 CM? I see twists going faster and faster in the future...a bright future, I should say.
I think 8 twist will work with the 153 A-Tip and the 156 EOL Berger.
The Swede has long handled 160's and most of them are around 8 twist or so.
I'm not worried about RL-26 in extreme hot weather. When it's that hot, it's too hot for me to be out shooting. When I hunt, it's generally 30-60*. I've read than RL-26 isn't that temp sensitive in certain applications, it varies. Not the best, not the worst...
