I am looking for a light load using N320- 230LRN in my stock 1911. I was using 5.0g of Unique and need something similar.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry Mate to change the subject on you like this but I must say, I think a road trip is in order for me. I can't find VV N320 anywhere in Southern California. I am down to my last 2 pounds or so and I am worried that I may have to resort to my back up powder. I love it in my 9mm.

I have some recipes that I screwed around with for one of my PARA's but somehow, it preferred Bullseye or Clays for lighter loads and that was that - Go Figure...

I'll look through my log book and see if I can find the exact numbers and hit you back tomorrow.

Cheers...

Please post it if you find it. I still have a couple of pounds left. I dont know of its availability but if you come to AZ let me know and I will put you in touch with my supplier.

I have not shot any lead with N320, but I have shot Zero 230 JHP's (and other bullets/weights) with N320.

4" CDP - Zero 230 Gr JHP @ 1.245 O.A.L.

5.0 Grs N320 gave 708 Avg FPS

5.2 Grs N320 gave 721 Avg FPS

Was going to try 5.4, but did not get around to it.
------------------------------------------------------------

5.0 Grs N320 and an X-Treme 225 Gr TrFP @ 1.215 O.A.L. gave me an Avg 780 FPS from a 5" 1911. (faster than avg barrel)

This should give you some idea of where to start. N320 works great in the .45 ACP. So does N310.

Yep.I used some 230 RN Raineers I found.

4.8 N320 gave me 781 fps
5.0 N320 gave me 804 fps
