vit n 120 in the .222 rem

[wj kerr]

Evening all. Was wanting to know has anyone here tried vit n 120 in the .222 rem and if so what were the results like. Regards wj.

I do not use VV powders, but I'm aware that they are excellent powders, and with you being from the UK, it's a viable option.
N120 is a bit fast burning, but should be fine with the lighter bullets in the 222 Rem. It appears that N130 & N133 might be a better all around choice.

Good luck and good shooting.

Their online PDF data agrees with NCsmitty. I have tried N130 in .223 & N133 in .222 Mag with good success. No reason they wouldn't work in .222.

Yeah think i will use the 40grain vmax or blitzking with this powder. Regards smitty.Walkalong.

I've had good results with N130 and Hornady 40gr v-max. I load closer to the middle of the road for my over/under(12ga / .222), as it gets its best accuracy there.
