You're most welcome! If you don't mind cold weather and Hodgdon H4350 selling for $137 per pound, I think you would like it :)

Tapio Saarelainen has written an excellent book called "The White Sniper: Simo Häyhä", which I can highly recommend to anybody who is interested in learning more about Mr. Häyhä and his accomplishments.

$137/lb WOW!!!! I suppose you did the conversion to US Dollars for us dummies.
Is it that spendy all the time? Our prices for EVERY component have skyrocketed this year due to it being an election year plus the bullshit with the virus.

Finland is one of the few places I would immigrate to if I decided to leave the USA. I doubt I will ever do that, but...

That is regular pricing for Hodgdon products in Finland (I did the conversion from euros to US dollars). Vihtavuori powders cost about half of that, so they are the affordable alternative. It seems that the US primer & ammunition drought has not affected the availability or pricing of US made components in Finland yet...
