Grand! - good to see another IPSC shooter in this Luger community.
I've read good reports on Vihtavuori powders on American handgun magazines, especially ipsc people seem to have found this powder to work well.

Due to heavy taxes on imported stuff over here, I therefore have no experience with other powders than this domestic stuff we have. Gunstores don't carry much foreign powders because people find prices too high. Domestic stuff is cheaper.
The only other powder I have used is Hodgdon H110 - that is one helluva powder for .44Magnum. I have found it to be unsurpassed in recreational shooting after dark. [img]smile.gif[/img]

'jcollin160' - what gun you shoot and in what class (std-mod-open)?
Just to confuse people I've taken my Luger to Standard class IPSC competition. Some jaws were dropped. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I will do it again. I have a Safariland 008 rig for it and all. Yes - I don't take shooting seriously anymore - (Have I ever?) [img]smile.gif[/img]
