Noticed the same thing about Vihtavuori powders. They've stayed pretty consistent on price while Hodgdon/IMR (and the other brands they've bought up) are increasing prices steadily. "$100/lb here we come".......
If it were me, I'd just seat that baby closer to the cannelure, and see how they shoot... assuming you aren't going to be extra compressed. Looks like they're pretty differen't bullets, so no need to be at the exact same over all length as the factory loads.
That's literally what I said, in the beginning of that same sentence mentioning 'piles'.... but we're not trying to actually understand eachother, it's more about trying to out-think, and/or correct.

Two words would have adequetly summarized it in a nutshell for me........ ''they're british''. Instead of looking into their origin, I created this monster 🤪
The fact that some folks are able to say, yes, I'll take the 10lb rifle over an outright...
"Highly expensive" vehicles & vacations still have a utility and value that make some sense. It's easier to understand their pricetags at least.
The vacation will come with memories and experiences, that "will last a lifetime"....
$325,000 would buy a heck of an arsenal full of guns and ammo...
Here's a local piece of realestate with an asking price of $349,000....

Here, we have a black angus bull that auctioned for $350,000...
Might as well ask for 1.2Mil if you can keep a straight face and ask this much..........

It does indeed have some nice engravings. Might even shoot well on top of that. I'm just in awe of the 'asking' price on some of these...
A friend and coworker of mine was always buying Calhoon's bullets for his 19-Badger when we came and went through Havre, Montana for work. Miss that area and the endless fields full of nothing but short grass and prarie dogs as far as the eye can see. We were splicing a huge rural fiber optic...
One of the main reasons for even messing with such light projectiles in a 223 case... if we're engaged in rodent work, it allows you to actually witness the impact. Not arguing that a 223, with any bullet has much recoil, but with 40s there's a significant and notable lack in scope jump...
Rodents are out over here in my neck of the woods which has helped me work through the remaining stock of H4198 I've had on hand for over 10 years... at which point I went to acquire more and essentially realized I was all done using H4198 given it's 'new' asking price. Close to a quarter per...
Anyone ever top off their hopper with a different powder? The whole '1 open powder container in your workspace at a time' rule will really be remembered after that happens a few times.......
That's it, in a nutshell. The 300BLK is a reloader's dream with a mind boggling number of appropriate powders and projectiles to play with... but honestly you 'need' both :thumbup:
