N565 Temp sensitivity 6.5 prc load

[whitecoyote]

The Hornady ballistic app is asking me Temp sensitivity factor, for N565 powder. I know its pretty temp stable for the most part. Does anyone have any numbers they input into their ballistic app for N565? Its going to be low 70s in the morning and high 90s from now to the end of august. Just looking for a general number i can throw in the app till we start getting into colder months.
I Finally found a load my 6.5 prc likes 156g berger, 58.6 gn n565, ADG brass, 210m primers, MV 2914 fps , 21 inch carbon barrel. single digit sd and ES.

I don’t have an exact number but read in multiple places it is similar to H1000. Hornady lists h1k as .4 temp sensitivity factor. I think .5 will keep you covered and account for a large enough difference you would be able to run into any situation.

Thank you! I went and shot today at 59 degrees and my velocity stayed the same as it did at 82 degrees!

The best option is to input multiple values for your setup. Test it at different temps and input that info. I use AB and can do that. I imagine hornady does that too.

It will have minimal effect on your actual data. As jonny said above, just input .4fps per degree with a baseline of 70 degrees. Should be good to go.

Also that load is freaking smoking fast for a 21" with 156's and N565

I switched to AB yesterday. I definitely like the option of being able to put multiple MVs during different temps!

Yeah I was not expecting to be shooting this fast lol. Factory 147s shoot 2900 out of my gun
