Interesting Powder for 9mm Luger

Sergio Natali · 01-29-2014, 03:21 AM

I've been reloading for many years especially 45 ACP, 40 S&W, 9X21 IMI, 38 Spl, and 308 Winch.,
In the past I often used Vihtavuori 320, 310, and I think one of my mates of the range uses the WW 231 Recently I use Cheddite granular as it's a lot cheaper.

Just out of curiosity I wonder why nobody of you seem to use Vihtavuori gun powder.

In my part of the Country, Vihtavouri Powder was not always easy to find even back when all powder was readily available. When you did find it, it was usually twice the price of the "standard" USA powders. Folks that were shooting a lot(1K rounds/month) were not interested due to the higher price. There are some handloaders that rave about it....I have no experience with it.
