The stock BP is only a problem with BH 209. The stock BP works fine in cold weather for all other powders, and pellets. You have to remember when it was designed BH 209 hadn't been invented yet. Keep in mind that when BH 209 first came out it wasn't accepted by a lot of groups. Colorado wanted to ban it in the muzzy season, but never actually did. Some other states did ban it at first.

So why would CVA care whether their gun shot it or not at first? Their gun worked perfect for all other powders. Finally, as BH 209 got more popular they gave in, and offered a BH 209 specific BP. They call is a loose powder BP, but we all know it's just for BH 209, since the stock BP works fine with other loose powders.
