Temperature and elevation effects on Chrono


Recommended Posts

Here's my question:

I life at 3200ft above sea level, dry climate. If I traveled to Louisiana for a competition, how would my ammunition chrono at sea level, hot and humid?

Thanks for the feedback.

The air, being thicker, would slow it some. Main thing to cause difference would be the temp, which way would depend on the powder you use. Some powders increase pressure with when warmer, some slow down. Doubt it would move PF more than a notch or two either way. I always tried to be 5 above the limit and never had any problem anywhere I shot.
