About Hodgdon
Hodgdon Powder Company began in 1946, when Bruce Hodgdon started selling surplus military powder to handloaders. Today the Hodgdon name covers one of the widest smokeless powder lines in the United States, and its annual reloading manual is a standard reference on most loading benches.
The Extreme series is the line most rifle shooters ask us about. These extruded powders are known for consistent performance across temperature swings, which matters for hunters and long range competitors who load in one season and shoot in another.
