I'm loading a 454 Casull with Win 296 31.5 gr.I'm using Hornady 250 gr. jhp.In cold weather(below 20 degees)I'm not getting a full burn,little round of gold beaded powder left in barrel,and some in the cylinders.On the bottom of the paper work that came with the Lee 454 dies was a small statement stateing to use mag primers with this powder.No loading manual that i have including Lee, and The new Hornady state this.I figured it at least should be in the Lee manual!!

Anyone use mag primers with this powder in the 454 Casull?
thanks
Ed
