John:
Great RLN, as usual. Please tell Eileen that her food articles are outstanding. I still can't understand why you don't weigh 400 pounds, especially after sampling all that jerky.
Anyway, you mention that you find Big Game to be about as temp resistant as the Hodgdon Extremes. Do you find the same is true with Hunter?
Thanks, as always.

Mike,
My cold-weather tests with Hunter in the .257 Roberts and .30-06 have shown about a 100 fps loss in velocity from 70 to zero degrees. Big Game shows a loss of at most around 30 fps under the same conditions, in cartridges from the 7x57 to 9.3x62.

Thanks, John. Much appreciated.
