I dunno it was snow on the ground last season when I used my 10 gauge load with twelve 00 Buck pellets to down a fat doe . Now granted in the New England states it will certainly get colder then here in Virginia . But that load did pretty well for me . Also in the late 2010 dove season it worked well and again there was snow on the ground . I think then the temo was between 22 and 30 . Thats by no means bitterly cold even in VA but it is below freezing .
I'm pretty happy with this load and Unique in my 16 damascus Parker . Now I need to move on to my like new W.&C.Scott 12 and 20 gauge damascus hammerless guns !
Also wanna work on single roundball loads in the short 10 and short 16 !
Back years ago shotgun reloading to me was all about loading enough shells quickly for a skeet or trap shoot the upcoming weekend
Now if I go shoot skeet I may shoot a couple rounds 10 or 12 times a year . And the rest to date has been for dove or buckshot for deer
