Vihtavouri Powders

[Scrumbag]

Hello folks,

Have Vihtavouri powders become more popular in the USA since the issues with panic buying?

Scrummy

Yes.

I have been using VV n540 for 308 amd even 6br.

I havent seem any spikes in pressure or velocity in warmer temps.

Very comparable to 4064 or varget.

Interesting

I've switched to N150 for my 6GT and will probably be switching to it for 308 once I run out of SW Precision.

Excellent stuff. Interesting situation as over here in Europe the US powders are the “exotic” choice

Wonder if it would be good for me to try with my 308 load I can't seem to get tuned to group tight enough. Going to run some with lapua brass tomorrow. I suspect that could be a factor

I have been using
N140 223 and 308
N150 260
N540 for years now.. 260 and 223

My last powder valley shipment was a big ol jug of 540 for the 260 and 223 primarily

I’m really liking N570 in my 338 edge and N165 in 7 saum with 168’s.

Yup, I'm pretty much all VV powders now for magnums: N560, N566, and N570. And N550 has been my go-to powder for heavy 6.5mm bullets. Pretty soon I'll be speaking Finnish, I guess...

N140 has always been a favorite here. Picked up N570 for 300 and 338 Norma. Also just scored 5lbs of N565
