I still have most of a 10 lb. keg of WW452AA shotgun powder(used up 20 lbs.of the stuff shooting IPSC) that gave me great accuracy with cast 200grH&G68 SWC. I went to the USPSA Nationals the 1st year they were held at Barry, Ill., and it was cold. The day they were chronoing loads to determine if they made major or not, many of the shooters from Texas and other southern states failed to make major with their W231 loads because of the cold temp. My 452AA loads went faster when it got cold. Never had anyone explain that to me.
