VihtaVuori Powders

[TKHover]

Just trying to get some personal experience opinions. I've been using 4.9 gr. of N330 behind 124 gr Montana Gold JHP for some time now. Generally, I've been very happy with the results. I get good, but not outstanding accuracy. However, that's probably more me than the load. I'm always looking to improve and try new things. I'm about to buy some new powder and was thinking of trying either N320 or 3N37. As I said, I'm looking for personal experience opinions from those of you who have used N320, N330, or 3N37. Please do not respond with opinions of other powders. I just want to try one of the two new VihtaVuoris or stay with N330. I'm shooting these loads mainly out of a 9mm CZ75B in IPSC. Thanks.

I use 320 exclusively out of my 40. I like it but I hear that 310 and 350 are also good. I have 16lbs of 320 left so I think I will use it for a while. I think 320 is a good low recoil, clean powder. The consistency seems to be better on hotter loads though. I have gotten great accuracy out of it compared with tightgroup. It is one of my favorite powders. Sorry that this is only info for 40 vs. 9mm

3N37 is really good for full-house 9x19 loads, but it won't burn completely in moderate or light loads.

N320 is a good choice for moderate 9x19 loads. Somewhere in the low 4.x gr range with a 124gr plated round nose should be a good load.

I used to shoot this but switched to Titegroup in 9x19. For the same bullet and MV, the TG produces less blast and is 40% cheaper per lb too.

My suggestion is to use N320 unless you want to load 124gr+P equivalent loads.

I love N110 in 357, 41, and 44 mags.

Fairly high and very consistant velocity,with very little flash in all three calibers.

OK, not on your ''list'' but - long ago, used N340 for 9mm - still do ..... it was (maybe still is) ''recommended'' powder for that cal. Has done me well .. and is clean. IIRC (haven't checked) but I use I think 5.3 or 5.5 behind a cast 125 LRN. Very clean burn.

Wish Viht powders were not so danged expensive.
