I am still concerned with H1000 because it is extruded. A ball powder would be a better choice, but I do not know of any of them that are not temperature sensitive, especially when things get really cold (hangfires). For me I will try H1000 since retumbo has not given the best accuracy for me and I don't have an issue with packing my ammo for hundreds of miles through rough terrain. My question was more for my friend so he doesn't end up with another sticky bolt or worse yet a blown case. Thanks and any other suggestions are appreciated. T.S.
