H414 reality check loaddata.com vs Modern Reloading Manual 2nd ed.

i always keep an 8 pound jug of W760/H414 handy. its such a useful powder here in NW USA. however if you live in a climate that regularly shifts from extreme heat to extreme cold or if you hunt in a wide variety of locations its not a good idea to use this powder.

W760/H414 is well know to give higher pessures in warm weather and lower pressures in cold areas. a max pressure load at 30F could cause serious pressure issues at 100F! however in WA, USA our weather ranges from 20F-70F with an average daily temp of 45F (7 celsius). so these kinds of powers work well here because we dont have wild temperature changes.
