Volga Vigilante Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I have found some N320 for $20/pound. Does anyone have experience or thoughts on this powder? I'm currently loading 38 spl with Titegroup. Thanks. V.V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack, SASS #20451 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 It is WONDERFUL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.N. Double Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 For that price, I'd go for it. It works OK for me in .45 Colt and .45 ACP, but I wouldn't buy it again at the normal price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.D. Daily Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 From the VihataVouri website cowboy action load for 158 grain pill using N320 powder: starting at 3.6 grains & max 4.1 grains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowstone Vic SASS#32968 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Volga, Good powder for cowboy. Look in your email. Vihtavouri cowboy data. See you this weekend at Fire on the Prairie. Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muggle Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I picked up another jug of N350 at Scheels the other day. It is a 2kg jug, which is 4.4lbs and was $160. $36.36 per pound is really not that bad, and with recent price increases VV is becoming more price competitive.

Still hand Bill Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Great powder and an amazing price. Not sure I have ever found vv powders that cheap. I have read they use cotton for the cellulose, making for clean burning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom, SASS #54973 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 That's stoopid low price... Buy it!! I used 3.4gr 125TC Phantom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Hunter SASS #20389L Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Like Phantom said, stoopid low price. Hasn't been that low in 18-20 years. Here's you some load data: http://merlin555.free.fr/pn/Vihtavuori_Cowboy_Data.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Moses Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I got some when I ran out of red dot. I use the same scoops I used with red dot and shoot 38 spec and 44 spec\mag. Works great and not NEAR as dirty as red dot and just as bulky. I would buy 3 pounds if I could find any! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I'm guessing the $20/lb powder the OP has found is from someone getting out of reloading. Natchez currently has V-V N320 "on sale" for $149.99 for the 4 lb. jug. Their regular price is $169.99. V-V has always been expensive, and even "on sale" is rather high, but at least it is a little lower and is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Jorge Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 What velocities have you measured with your VV320 loads? Or, do you go by "feel and function?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volga Vigilante Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 I found this at the Scheels store in Sioux Falls. It was gone the next day. I did get 3 pounds of N320 and 3 of N350. I also bought 2 pounds of a rifle powder. At $20 a pound I'm sure I'll find a use for it. Thanks for the input and the load data links. V.V.
