For the purpose, I do not think anything beats NP0. They simply did not exist at the time, and the mica were the best (and they are great, considering they are as good today as they were the day they were made). But C0G has Zero ppm temp drift.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
