Paul is right kauko......there is nothing bad about Vihtavuori powders, they are a well respected European powder. Iused to use Vihtavuori small pistol primers some years ago, but I found them too hard in my target pistol once the action had been tuned so I went over to Federal.
Mate, as Paul says, use the powder that suits your needs and delivers the best accuracy for you. Also, Paul won't lie.....as a minister, or man of God, its just not in him to do so.
Cheers, Vince

Hello mates. There is no moore VihtaVuori primers. ( I think that the leatest was CCI). I useCCI and Winchester primers. Easist to have where I live. CCI BR-4 I use for .22 Horn, .222- and, 223 Rem. Maybe Paul is then Paul Saver?

You keep forgetting that pot holes are not my job but painting is my line of work. You know, like lane arrows, lines etc. But your right, I am going back to work on the 2nd of April.

I think that a good story about that 600 yard kill on a deer is about as close to a lie as I've heard from you guys - and I am sure that it was the honest truth. Its just that some folks have smaller yard sticks than others
on these boards I get to be just one of the guys. Thats why I likw it here so much.
