VihtaVuori commercial survey

[roberti11]

.223

What would work well for .223 in a bolt gun?

I use N540 in my .223, I guess this is the double base equivalent of n140, I find it to be outstanding

 

[roberti11]

Varget

Which one performs like Varget? I'm an idiot when it comes to VV powders

I have used N540 for both my .233 bolt gun and my .308, it performs very close to varget in my .308, and is better than varget in my .223

 

[Missing Something]

For a 250 grs bullets N165 and N560 are optimum choices in .338LM.

Right from the mouth of the tech's at Lapua.

I wish to sincerely thank all CGN posters on what is to me, an important topic. The responses and advice have been more than expected and indicate a wide market segment of reloaders. We have listened and will act accordingly.

Regards,

Question Peter

N133 - PPC's
N135, N140, N540, N150, N550 - 308's, wildcats, etc
N160, N560 - magnum's

Any idea of the price for 8 pounders Peter?

Hoping for around $176 Cdn for a 8lb'r ship'g included myself. This would make you competitive with Higginson Powders Inc., his is running $22 / lb shipped and also in line with US pricing at $132 US = $155.73 Cdn (Champion Shooters Supply) and $148 US = $174.61 (Eabco) Cdn today.

 

[Quigley]

320 , 3n37...

 

[peterdobson]

Quigley and others, sorry, won't have prices for about 30 days. Got to mention that this venture is costing, what is to me, a fortune. Ordered a 42'X12' steel transportable bunker. Ouch!

Talk to you after I 'm out of the hospital next week.

I have used N540 for both my .233 bolt gun and my .308, it performs very close to varget in my .308, and is better than varget in my .223

So if i split the difference for a .22-250, it should be all right?

 

[peterdobson]

I am unavailable to answer any questions. I will get back to you once I am able.

I would like some shotgun powder too. 3l,3m

 

[Andy]

A Methusaleth thread revived!

I could use some 20N29 - in hugely overbore calibers.

 

[Blygy]

20n29 for sure..

 

[BC_Guy]

N140, N150, and I'd like to test N540, N550.

 

[cycbb486]

For the

PPC gang 133.

 

[kombayotch]

N550 does magical things with heavy bullets in 308 Win. It would be nice to be able to get it in Canada if I head back.

 

[Andy]

Higginson's Powders now has most of the VihtaVuori line, but not 20N29. To be fair, I can't really blame them, as I'd be surprised if they'd sell 50 lbs a year.

 

[Ganderite]

N140 and N150 very good for 308, all weights and 223 for the heavy bullets.

 

[lejarretnoir]

N140, N160, N165 for me Plz.

You should make this into a Poll if you can. Would be easier to see the percentage

 

[peterdobson]

Why has this year-old thread been restarted. It wasn't me!

[bear.23]

probably becuase someone looked up vihtavouri and said to themselves that they want to restart a year old thread for S&G
