What powder for the best speeds? Going to pick up a few lbs when I pick up my bullets. Finally found 4 boxes of 120 TTSX's and now ready to start some load development.
Also want to add that temperature sensitivity is important. Don't want to work on a load all summer just to have it fall apart in the fall in 20� weather.
Thanks Roy

I tested quite a few powders and settled on RL19 pushing 120NBTs to 3500fps

R22 and H4831 are good choices. I've never had a sensitivity issue with R22, but the myth abounds. H4831 is a good choice if you're worried about it.

I've pretty much settled on RL19 in my Husqvarna Imperial..RL22 and H4831 both work well too. I've used both nosler 120 BT and Barnes 120 TTSX on pronghorns and whitetails, both work, I prefer the nosler.
