Vihta Vuori Oy powder
 
In my 220 swift, i have been loading 45 gr. spitzer-sp. I use 37.5gr of IMR 3031 and have gotten good accuracy. I was wondering if any one has used Vihta Vuori Oy powders. i am looking at the Viht 160. Any thoughts on this powder?

I have used N550 and still have about 1 1/2 lbs left. Used it on a 300 wsm and it delivered 200 fps slower then H4350 for this application. Very expensive powder that is hard to obtain at least for me usually sold in 2lb containers .

I was looking in my reloading manual and saw that N160 would give me another 200fps or so over the IMR powder. I might give it a try, it's only a little more than IMR. Thanks for your input.

I shoot alot of 160 in my 280 improved and it is a very good consistant powder. If it shoots for you like it does for me you'll really like it.
