n330

Firstly N330 handgun powder provides a wide range of latitude for the handgun shooter, serving well for everything from light targets to heavier high-velocity loadings. Secondly is a versatile, medium-burning N300-series powder suitable for an exceptionally broad range of applications, specially designed for 9 mm Luger but also suitable for .38 Special, .40 S&W, .44 S&W Special, and .45 Colt.

In addition, this powder provides a wide range of latitude for the handgun reloader, serving well for all kinds of shooting disciplines from light targets to heavier high-velocity loadings, most importantly. The grain length is 1,0 mm and the diameter is 0,8 mm. It’s suitable for an exceptionally broad range of sport shooting applications.

Reloading tip by our Pros

If you are looking for a mild and accurate load for your 9 mm Luger, try N330 with an 8,0 g / 123 gr bullet.

Vihtavuori N330 is available in 0,5 kg containers and in the USA in 1 lb and 4 lbs containers.

VIHTAVUORI – THE POWER OF ACCURACY

For almost a hundred years, Vihtavuori powders have formed the heart of many of the world’s most renowned cartridges.

Reloaders know they can trust in the performance and uniform high quality of Vihtavuori smokeless powders  – cartridge after cartridge – to create a perfect product for successful shooting.

When choosing our reloading powder you know your ammo is up to the task, even in the toughest conditions. Go ahead, take Vihtavuori and make the perfect shot.

WHY CHOOSE VIHTAVUORI POWDERS FOR RELOADING?

All of our gun powders meet the strict requirements of both civilian and military needs.

They’re Clean Burning

Our use of only the finest of raw materials is a renowned characteristic of all Vihtavuori powders similarly. We take great pride in producing a very pure and clean-burning powder that allows longer shooting sessions between cleanings.

The clean-burning characteristics of our rifle and handgun powders result in greatly reduced carbon build-up and powder fouling.

Ultimately giving longer barrel life for rifles above all. Read more on our rifle and handgun powders here!

They come with a Decoppering agent

After extensive testing and development, we’ve begun adding a decoppering agent to all of our smokeless powders. This additive deters the adhesion and build-up of copper fouling in the bore, ie. the inside of the barrel of a firearm.

Excessive jacket material fouling is a well-known and established cause of accuracy loss when shooting. Our new decoppering agent prevents much of barrel fouling from building up in the first place, greatly prolonging your shooting sessions, and extending barrel life.

They’re extremely temperature stable

Temperature stability in reloading powders has always been a consideration, but with the recent improvements in Long Range and ELR shooting, it has become a factor of major concern to shooters. Firing at long ranges places greater demands on ammo, equipment, and the shooter himself. Enabling a shooter to meet these demands means refining the process, and eliminating those variables which reduce hit probability. The production of increasingly temperature-insensitive propellants allows for greatly reduced Extreme Spreads and Standard Deviation, which translates directly to less vertical dispersion on target.

They’re lot-to-lot consistent

This demanding process requires constant testing, verification, and adjustment to ensure that each run is perfectly compatible with those before and after. This is a guiding principle of our powder production philosophy. We require extreme accuracy and quality at every step of our production process.

VIHTAVUORI IS EXPERIENCED, QUALITY CRAFTSMANSHIP FOR THE PERFECT AMMO

Moreso we manufacture our propellants entirely in-house, and this ensures their high quality. Vihtavuori rifle and pistol powders deliver consistently flawless firing performance – for you, this means reliable reloading and ammunition you demand.

Each stage of the production process is subject to stringent quality control by our experts, however.

To ensure that each production lot has the exact ballistic performance required.

Moreover, the grain geometry of different gunpowder types provides the wanted combustion characteristics for the chosen cartridge application.

The estimated shelf-life of Vihtavuori gunpowders is a minimum of 10 years most importantly if stored and sealed in its original containers at a temperature circa 20°C and relative humidity of circa 55 %.

In conclusion,all Vihtavuori Powders are available also in Industrial Packings.
