Vitavourhi Powder?
« on: December 22, 2004, 09:17:47 AM »
Does anyone have good results and reload data for a 300 RUM using Vitavourhi powder?  I have heard good things about the performance in all conditions but their reloading data leaves much to be desired in velocity.  Their max load for the 300 RUM with a 180gr. Barnes X is 3137fps.  Factory loads are much better than this.  Any help would be appreciated.  I'm looking for the best combination of ingredients to get repeatable accuracy and high velocity for long range shooting.

I like the Hodgdon Extreme powders because they are temperature insensitive. This is a good attribute when repeatability is an issue. I don't know if the VV powders are like that.

A friend of mine and I were looking at Vitavourhi Powders, but when we found them, they seemed so much more expensive than the other brands that we decided it wasn't worth it.

good luck,
