Vihta Vuori N130 GJ1032

Product Details

Vihta Vuori   N130        

Vihtavuori N130 rifle powder, the target shooter’s choice

Vihtavuori rifle powder N130, formerly known as N303, is a multipurpose powder for various rifle calibers, and suitable especially for small game hunting and target shooting.

The N130 is used in many factory loaded caliber .22 and 6 mm PPC cartridges. It is also an excellent handloading match for lighter bullets in caliber .223 Remington and for straight-wall rifle cases like the .45-70 Government and the .458 Winchester Magnum.

The N130 is a single-base, tubular rifle powder type with grain dimensions of 1,0 mm length and 0,6 mm in diameter. On our scale of our rifle powders, the burning rate is relatively fast. Fun fact: The grain size of N130 is exactly the same as with N133 and N135, but due to differences in surface coatings, the burning behaviour of these powders is different.

Pro tip for using N130 gun powder

Jarkko Laukia, a multiple medalist in international ISPC competitions, has been using Vihtavuori N130 with great success. He was in the Finnish Gold medal winning team at the 2017 Russia Rifle World Shoot whilst clenching the bronze in the Open series and silver in the Shoot Off, with ammo loaded with N130 and also N140.

This is how he describes Vihtavuori N130:

I’ve loaded tens of thousands of rounds for my .223 Rem AR-15 rifle in the last decade, and have noticed how unbeatable the powder N130 is for loading lightweight bullets ranging between 50 and 55 grains.

Vihtavuori’s N130 guarantees an excellent competitive shooting combination of accuracy, mild recoil and clean burning. As an active reloader, I also really appreciate the good flow of the powder in my reloading machine.

I use 21.5 – 23.5 gr loads in my cartridges, depending on the bullet and desired velocity. With these loads I have gained several medals in 3-5 level IPSC Rifle competitions over the years, and I’ve always been able to count on the highest possible quality of my cartridges. To me, Vihtavuori powders are the only right choice for the shooter that doesn’t compromise on quality and wants to aim for the top!

This favourite load of mine for .223 Rem has given 0,5 MOA and works well up to 300 meters in dull weather conditions:

Case: Lapua Match

Powder: Vihtavuori N130 22,0 gr

Bullet: Lapua 51 gr HPCE

OAL: 56,0 mm

PF: 156-160 mm depending on the used barrel

 

Reloading Powders for Rifles

Relative burning rate of powder types mentioned above decreases from left to right.

 RELOADING DATA

N110

The fastest burning rifle powder from Vihtavuori. Similar to Hodgdon H110 and Winchester 296. N110 can be used in small rifle cases like .22 Hornet and .30 Carbine but also in magnum pistol and revolver cartridges like .357 S&W Magnum, .41 Magnum, .44 Magnum, .454 Casull and .500 S&W.
  

N120

Slower burning powder for small capacity rifle cases and for lighter bullets in many .22 caliber loads. N120 needs higher pressure than N110 in order to optimize burning. Burning rate is near to Accurate 1680, IMR 4198 and Reloder 7. N120 is suitable also for 7,62x39, .30-30 Winchester and .444 Marlin.

N130

This powder is used in many factory loaded caliber .22 and 6 mm PPC cartridges. Suitable also for lighter bullets in caliber .223 Remington and for straight-wall rifle cases like .45-70 Government and .458 Winchester Magnum. Burning rate is close to Hodgdon H322 and Accurate 2230.
 

N133

A choice of many bench rest and standard rifle shooters who are using 6 mm PPC. Used also in many loads of .222 Remington, .223 Remington and as well in other applications where a relatively fast burning powder is needed, like in .45- 70 Government. Similarly burning powders are Norma 201, Hodgdon H335 and Vectan SP10.
 

N135

An excellent powder for .308 Winchester loads with bullet weight less than 10 grams (155 grains). It will fit applications similar to IMR4064, Hodgdon H4895 or Accurate 2520. Capability for various loads ranging from .222 Remington to .458 Winchester Magnum.
 

N140

A true multipurpose powder, which can usually be used in place of IMR4320, Reloder 15 or Hodgdon H380. Good choice also for .223 Remington, .22-250 Remington, .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield, 8x57 IS (8 mm Mauser) and .375 H&H Magnum.
 

N150

This powder burns a bit slower than N140 and works as well as Hodgdon H414 and Winchester 760. Typically used with heavier bullets in accuracy and hunting loads of cartridges with middle case volumes, like .308 Winchester, 6,5x55 SE and .30-06 Springfield.
 

N160

slow burning powder for Magnum cartridges and calibers with large case volume and comparatively small bullet diameter. Burning speed of N160 is close to Reloder 19, Winchester WMR and the various 4831´s. For example some ideal applications are: .243 Winchester, 6,5-.284 Norma, 7 mm Weatherby Magnum, .300 Winchester Magnum, .338 Winchester Magnum and all the Winchester Short Magnums.
  

N165

A very slow burning powder for Magnum cartridges with heavy bullets. N165 offers performance equal to Norma MRP and Reloder 22. To be used with heavy bullets in calibers ranging from 6,5x55 SE all the way to .416 Rigby.
  

N170

The slowest burning N100 series rifle powder from Vihtavuori and one of the slowest canister reloading powders generally available from any manufacturer. It will fit applications similar to Hodgdon H1000 and Accurate 8700. Good performances in most of the belted Magnum cartridges like .300 Weatherby Magnum and suitable also for .300 Remington Ultra Magnum and .338 Lapua Magnum. Premium N100 Powders The N100 series powders are primarily rifle powders with different burning rates to optimize your loads.
