I'd like to know if Accurate 2460 is temp sensitive, also? Have lots of it sitting around right now & really want to try it in my 204's.

... thought I'd ask while we're on the subject of temp sensitive powders.

you can see the primer on the right is very rounded. The only primer of the test that didn't flatten any.
