vv n570

Re: vv n570

Whats so great about n570 (seriously asking)? People seem to be excited about it (338 norma mag guys), but I can't figure out why. Is this powder better than H1000 and Retumbo?
 
Re: vv n570

I have been waiting on this powder to clear customs for a couple of years. The reason I have wanted it is curiosity. If you ever lay with QL vv570 almost always is one oof the top velocity powders for large magnums.

Your wait is over. Powder Valley has One lbs. containers in stock as of March 2nd
 
Re: vv n570

If its like the other N5x0 powders, it will give great velocities and accuracy, but will be lacking in temperature stability.

Well, you do get more energy with the 'N series' of powders, which are double base and contain up to 25% nitrogylcerin, but there are no free lunches.

Higher energy translates into hotter and more voluminous gas, which in turn, cuts through your throat faster.

You will definitely burn through barrels faster, especially if you loading the N series powders at max levels.
