In Italy it is very common and used. I have used it for many years but, many years ago, when the packaging was still a metal can. ;)

As often happens, this powder has passed under different hands, changing its characteristics from time to time.

Now, Vectan, it seems to be producing it with its old features.

I did this because the powder was not homogeneous, but varied its liveliness from one lot number to another.

Please note that here we use the 9x21 IMI, which has a boiling room other than 9x19.
I would recommend you to start with 4.4 / 4.5 grains then go up by checking with the chronograph.
