    Vihtvuori n350?

    Anyone have experience with this powder? I snagged a 4-pounder off a consignment auction for less than the LGS price sticker on the jug and have been wondering if it can be used for anything other than upper-end handgun loads. VV load data indicates that it's just a bit faster than Blue Dot and provides loads for almost all current handgun cartridges but nothing else.

    Visit Vihtuori’s web site and the list all powders and what they can be used with what cartridges. I’ve found VV powder to be some of the best I’ve ever used for a few different rifle and handgun loads.

    I have used it in 327 Federal and 44 Special. I started slightly below HS6 loads in both calibers and ended up with about identical charges. I tend to load the 44 Special to the Pearce tier II level or slightly below.

    I wouldn't consider the loads I've used in either caliber to be any more than what I consider medium. I had to work up loads as there wasn't much data available. It's clean and accurate in my applications.
