Vihtavuori N-130

Anyone running loads in the 22BR using V-N130 powder? Can't seem to locate any load data so any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
 
Seems a little fast for the .22BR unless you are running lightweights in a short barrel. This is just from a quick look at QL using the 53 grain V-Max and generic info.
 
Maybe try it with some 40gr bullets. Prob won't find many loads for it because it's really not a good fit. While I have not tried N133 and N135 in the 22BR I do use Hodgdon Benchmark and Varget with 52gr bullets. These are the Hodgden equivalents to those Vihtavouri powders, and for me I'd give the nod to Varget as of yet. Either of the 4895 look real good in this application as well...

Thanks Tim,

You might give N-135 a try with the 22BR. Berger has it listed with 52 to 70 grain bullets in their new manual.
