Hello folks,
I'm currently working on 7.62x39 handloads with jacketed bullets 123-150. I may explore casting for this rifle, but I'm trying to keep it simple with jacketed bullets at the moment.
The powders I have to work with are Reloder7, H335, H4198 and IMR4227. The first three are the most interesting. I've had some good luck with H4198, but I'm also hearing that H335 seems to provide the best accuracy and want to see for myself.
I am curious about how well these powders function between a temp range of 15-110degrees. The maximum range I'm looking to shoot is 100yds. When I hear about folks disusing temp sensitivity with rifle loads, I'm wondering if there is a good guideline to follow with regard to group size variation at 100yds. My experience handloading for rifle is very limited, so I'm looking for a fairly good baseline of what to expect in temperature swings when shooting to a maximum of 100yds--Georgia temps, specifically. Thanks folks
PS. I understand max loads can become dangerous if the temp is extreme enough, therefore I will be selecting a powder that I can shoot nicely while staying well under the max load.
