Preface
Dear Vihtavuori customer,
The new Vihtavuori Reloading Guide 2006 for Centerfire Ammunition is an updated version of the
previous Vihtavuori Reloading Guides. The contents of this new issue has been revised with loading data
for the following calibres
6,5 mm Grendel
7 x 57R and 8 x 57 JRS
9,3 x 66 Sako and .416 Rigby
500 S&W Magnum
Furthermore the loading data has been updated with new Lapua Naturalis premium-grade hunting
bullets as well as with many well-known high-quality match and hunting bullets. To keep the load data
as current as possible, many obsolete bullets has been removed from the tables. As a courtesy to the
reloader the load tables contain now notes of compressed loads and loads to fill the case up. For increased
usability this new edition features data in both measuring systems i.e. charge weight in grams and grains
as well as muzzle velocity in meters and feet per second.
A completely new feature in the Vihtavuori Reloading Guide is the accuracy loads noted in the load
tables. These loads utilise word-wide well-known LAPUA cartridge components and are factory-tested
either for even pressure/muzzle velocity characters or even grouping, or both. These loads are
highlighted in the load tables by grey shadowing.
All the loads in this guide are pressure tested according to the CIP method. The maximum loads given
in the tables are determined according to the CIP/SAAMI maximum pressure specifications, whichever
is lower. The listed maximum loads should never be exceeded. Due to the differences in the cartridge
components, individual weapons, shooting temperatures etc. always start developing your load by using
the starting load according to the loading data. If there is no indication of the starting load, use 15 % lower
charge than the listed maximum load as your starting load.
The Vihtavuori powders are manufactured by Eurenco Vihtavuori Oy in Vihtavuori plant. Sales and
marketing of reloading powders as well as customer service are carried out by Nammo Lapua Oy.
Contact details of our customer service and the list of Vihtavuori Distributors can be found in the back
of this guide. For latest updates of data and distributors check also at www.vihtavuori.fi/ www.lapua.com,
where this guide can also be downloaded in pdf-format.
We wish you successful reloading with Vihtavuori powders.

Rifle Powders
N100 series
The series N100 powders are primarily rifle powders,
with suitable speeds to optimize handloading from
the tiny .17 Remington and .22 Hornet all the way to
the monster bashing .458 Winchester Magnum. There
are ten speeds in this series and they include:
N110: The fastest burning rifle powder from Vihtavuori. Similar to Hodgdon H110 and Winchester 296.
N110 can be used in small rifle cases like .22 Hornet
and .30 Carbine but also in magnum pistol and revolver cartridges like .357 S&W Magnum, .41 Magnum,
.44 Magnum, .454 Casull and .500 S&W.
N 120: Slower burning powder for small capacity rifle
cases and for lighter bullets in many .22 caliber loads.
N120 needs higher pressure than N110 in order to
optimize burning. Burning rate is near to Accurate
1680, IMR 4198 and Reloder 7. N120 is suitable also
for 7.62x39, .30-30 Winchester and .444 Marlin.
N130: This powder is used in many factory loaded
caliber .22 and 6 mm PPC cartridges. Suitable also for
lighter bullets in caliber .223 Remington and for
straight-wall rifle cases like .45-70 Government and
.458 Winchester Magnum. Burning rate is close to
Hodgdon H322 and Accurate 2230.
N133: A choice of many bench rest and standard rifle
shooters who are using 6 mm PPC. Used also in many
loads of .222 Remington, .223 Remington and as well
in other applications where a relatively fast burning
powder is needed, like in .45-70 Government. Similarly burning powders are Norma 201, Hodgdon H335
and Vectan SP10.
N135: An excellent powder for .308 Winchester loads
with bullet weight less than 10 grams (155 grains). It
will fit applications similar to IMR4064, Hodgdon
H4895 or Accurate 2520. Capability for various loads
ranging from .17 Remington to .458 Winchester Magnum.
N140: A true multipurpose powder, which can usually be used in place of IMR4320, Reloder 15 or
Hodgdon H380. Good choice also for .223 Remington, .22-250 Remington, .308 Winchester, .30-06
Springfield, 8x57 JS (8 mm Mauser) and .375 H&H
Magnum.
N150: This powder burns a bit slower than N140 and
works as well as Hodgdon H414 and Winchester 760.
Typically used with heavier bullets in accuracy and
hunting loads of cartridges with middle case volumes,
like .308 Winchester, 6.5x55 SE and .30-06 Springfield.
N160: A slow burning powder for Magnum cartridges and calibers with large case volume and comparatively small bullet diameter. Burning speed of N160 is
close to Reloder 19, Winchester WMR and the various
4831s. For example some ideal applications are: .243
Winchester, 6.5-.284 Norma, 7 mm Weatherby Magnum, .300 Winchester Magnum, .338 Winchester
Magnum and all the Winchester Short Magnums.
N165: A very slow burning powder for Magnum
cartridges with heavy bullets. N165 offers performance equal to Norma MRP and Reloder 22. To be used
with heavy bullets in calibers ranging from 6.5x55 SE
all the way to .416 Rigby.
N170: The slowest burning N100 series rifle powder
from Vihtavuori and one of the slowest canister
reloading powders generally available from any manufacturer. It will fit applications similar to Hodgdon
H1000 and Accurate 8700. Good performances in
most of the belted Magnum cartridges like .300 Weatherby Magnum and suitable also for .300 Remington
Ultra Magnum and .338 Lapua Magnum.
N500 series
Adding nitroglycerol to the traditional single base
powder makes possible in addition to geometry and
coating a third controlled variable of ballistic properties: energy content. Vihtavuori calls powders which
have nitroglycerol added (maximum 25 %) high energy NC-powders, which form N500 series.
The composition of a typical high energy powder is as
follows:
* nitrocellulose
* nitroglycerol
* coating agent
* stabilizer
* flame reducing agent
* wear reducing agent
Geometrically the powders in the N500 series are
equal to the N100 series. Although these new powders
have a higher energy content, they do not cause
greater wear to the gun. This is because the surface of
the powder has been treated with an agent designed to
reduce barrel wear.
N500 series powders work well at different temperatures, even better than the traditional N100 and N300
series. Temperature sensitivity naturally depends very
much on the weapon and on the cartridge. The
manufacturing technique employed permits a very
high bulk density, which in turn makes it possible to
use a bigger charge in a certain limited loading volume.
Vihtavuori High Energy powders are available in for
burning rates:
N530: This is the fastest burning powder in the N500
series and its burning rate is close to Vihtavuori N135
and Hodgdon BL-C(2). Developed especially for the
5,56 mm NATO-cartridges and it gives excellent
performances in many .45-70 Government loads and
also in .308 Winchester loads with bullet weight less
than 10 grams (155 grains).
N540: Faster burning powder with a burning rate like
with N140 and close to Hodgdon H414 and Winches5
International Guide 2006 vers 2.pmd
2/22/2006, 8:13 PM
ter 760. To situations where more power is needed,
especially for .223 Remington, .308 Winchester and
.30-06 Springfield loads with heavier bullets.
N550: Burning rate is like with N150 and close to IMR
4350 and Reloder 19. Good choice for more powerful
loads for 6.5x55 SE, .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield and for many others.
N560: Burning rate is between N160 and N165 and
close to Norma MRP and Reloder 22. Powder especially for Magnum cartridges to get out the best power
for example from .270 Winchester, 7 mm Remington
Magnum, 7 mm Weatherby Magnum, .300 Winchester Magnum, .300 Weatherby Magnum and .338 Lapua
Magnum.
N570: This is the newest member of the N500 series
powders and also the slowest burning. The burning
rate of N570 is near to N170 and it is faster burning
than 24N41. The characteristics of this high energy
powder with large grain size bring out the best in most
of the large volume cases like for example in 6,5-.284
Norma, .300 Winchester Magnum, .300 Remington
Ultra Magnum, .338 Lapua Magnum and .30-378
Weatherby Magnum.
Powders for the .50 BMG
For .50 BMG there are two special Vihtavuori reloading powders available: 24N41 and 20N29. They are,
like N100 series, single base surface treated powders.
Their burning rate is slower and grain size larger than
that of the N100 series rifle reloading powders. The
renewed relative burning rate of the 24N41 is 39 and
that of the 20N29 respectively 36, when N110 is given
the index 100, and therefore 24N41 is slightly faster
burning than 20N29. There is reloading data available
also for some other magnum rifle calibers with these
powders and 20N29 has gained reputation also when
used eg. in .300 Lapua Magnum and in .30-378 Weatherby Magnum.
Handgun Powders
Handgun powders include five N300 series propellants, three special propellants and one propellant
applicated especially for Cowboy Action Shooting:
N310:Very fast burning and competitive with Alliant
Bullseye, Hodgdon HP38 and Vectan Ba 10. It has
applications in a very wide range from .32 S&W Long
Wadcutter up to .45 ACP.
N320: A comparatively fast burning multipurpose
handgun powder with burning rate about the same as
Winchester 231 or Alliant Red Dot. Currently available reloading data for 9 mm Luger, .38 Super Auto,
.38 Special, .357 Magnum, .40 S&W, .44 S&W Special,
.44 Remington Magnum, .45 ACP and .45 Colt.
Tin Star (N32C): Special powder developed for Cowboy Action Shooters shooting lead bullets with revolvers and single-action rifles. It has low bulk density
(less free space in the case) and it burns very clean
without residues with a burning rate between N320
and N330. Reloading data is currently available for .38
Special and .44 Magnum.
N330: Burning rate is a bit slower than with N320 and
corresponding to Alliant Unique and Vectan Ba 9.
Especially designed for 9 mm Luger but also suitable
for .38 Special, .40 S&W, .44 S&W Special and .45
(Long) Colt.
N340: An excellent multipurpose handgun powder
with burning rate generally about like Accurate No.5
or Alliant Herco. Wide application area covers the
following handgun cartridges: 9 mm Luger, 9x21 mm,
.357 SIG, .38 Super Auto, .38 Special, .357 Magnum,
.40 S&W, 10 mm AUTO, .44 S&W Special, .44
Remington Magnum, .45 ACP and .45 Colt.
N350: This is the slowest burning N300 series handgun powder, which can usually be used instead of
Accurate No.7, IMR Hi-Skor 800-X and Alliant Blue
Dot. Appropriate choice for many powerful handgun
loads, for example in calibers 9 mm Luger, 10 mm
AUTO and .45 ACP.
3N37: Originally developed for .22 rimfire cartridges
but has proven to be very versatile and desirable
within all competitive handgun shooting disciplines.
The burning speed of this small grain powder is near
to N350 and Vectan A0. Reloading data available for
all popular handgun cartridges.
3N38: This specially designed powder for competitive handgun shooting is recommended for high velocity loads of 9 mm Luger, .38 Super Auto and .40
S&W with moderate bullet weight. Burning rate is
corresponding to Vectan SP 2.
N105 Super Magnum: Slow burning handgun powder filling the gap between N350 and N110. Especially
developed for handgun cartridges with heavy bullets
and/or large case volume. Reloading data is currently
available for the following cartridges: 9x21 mm, .38
Super Auto, .357 Magnum, 357 Remington Maximum, .40 S&W, 10 mm AUTO, .41 Remington
Magnum, .44 Remington Magnum, .45 Colt, .45
Winchester Magnum and .454 Casull.

About the Data
Disclaimer
As Nammo Lapua Oy has no control over improper
storage, handling, loading or use of our powders after
they have left the factory, we make no warranty of any
kind, either expressed or implied, limited or full. We
specifically disclaim all warranties of fitness for a
particular purpose and merchantability. We specifically disclaim all liability for consequential damages of
any kind whatsoever, whether or not due to sellers
negligence or based on strict product liability or
principle of indemnity or contribution, Nammo Lapua
Oy neither assumes nor authorizes any person to
assume for it any liability in connection with the use
of this product.
How To Use The Data
Our rifle and handgun data listings generally contain
maximum charges which are not to be exceeded. In
some instances starting loads are also listed. Currently
this booklet contains all of the data we can supply. Be
certain you use the correct data and the specific bullet
weight shown.
By staying 5 % below the maximum powder charge
weight, pressures will be reduced by about 10 % while
velocities will be only about 3 % lower than listed.
Caution: When loading handgun cartridges it is vital
to maintain the minimum cartridge overall length
(C.O.L.) listed in the tables. Shorter overall lengths
may double chamber pressures. Longer lengths are
permissible so long as the functioning of the handgun
will not be impaired.
The data in the loading tables were obtained at an
ambient temperature of 68 degrees Fahrenheit and
relative humidity of 55 %. The values obtained were
under carefully controlled conditions and may vary
from those obtained with your firearm, specific component lots, loading dimensions, and loading procedures. The maximum charges must NEVER be exceeded. Start loading with the starting load according to the loading data. If there is no indication of
the starting load, use 15 % lower charge than the
listed maximum. When loading cartridges for which
the listed charge is 10 grains or less, after firing 10
rounds at the minimum weight (15 % below maximum), increase charge weights by 0.2 grains and fire
another 10 rounds. Repeat this procedure, if necessary, until you reach, but do not exceed, the maximum listed charge. The same process is followed for
heavier charges except that charge weights from 11 to
25 grains use increments of 0.5 grains. For charges
over 25 grains increments of 1.0 grains will be correct.
If even a single test round shows signs of excessive
pressure discontinue the use of the load. Do not fire
even a single additional cartridge. Seek qualified help
before proceeding!
The traditional sign of overpressure is a flattened
primer. When flattened primers start to occur, it is a
definite warning that the charge should be reduced,
quickly. Brass getting into the ejector and extractor
cavities is a worse case. Blown out primers are worse
still. If a case ruptures it may be a sign of a defective
case or a truly lethal chamber pressure.
In case of overpressure signs it is wiser to back off,
to be safe rather than sorry. Why risk potentially fatal
injury? Better to stop shooting and immediately discard all such reloads.
Read also the Reloading Safety Rules on pages 9 and
10.
Pressure
There are numerous factors which can change the
ballistic performance of a load even when the data is
followed exactly. For example: The internal dimensions of a firearm can vary greatly even between two
of the same make and model. Pressures can vary to
extremes as different firearms are used. Each change in
brand and even within different lots of a specific brand
component can cause notable ballistic changes. Too,
changes in ambient temperature can also cause ballistic altering pressures. Not every bullet of a given
diameter and weight will produce alike pressure.
Changes in case brand can also effect ballistics. There
are numerous other causes of varying pressure levels.
Therefore it is essential that the reloader be well
versed in the methods of carefully working up a reload
powder charge in small increments as outlined in the
various reloading handbooks that are available from
reliable sources. The data in this book is not intended
for use by persons not thoroughly versed in such
procedures.
This guide should be supplemented by a good
reloading handbook such as the L apua Reloading
Manual, the DBI Metallic Cartridge Reloading, the
Vihtavuori Reloading Manual or other recognized
manuals that may offer all appropriate information.

Properties of Smokeless Powder
Smokeless powders, or propellants, are essentially
mixtures of chemicals designed to bum under controlled conditions at the proper rate to propel a projectile
from a gun.
Smokeless powders are made in three forms:
1. Thin, circular flakes or wafers
2. Small cylinders
3. Small spheres
Single-base smokeless powders derive their main
source of energy from nitrocellulose.
The energy released from double-base smokeless
powders is derived from both nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine.
All smokeless powders are extremely flammable by
design, they are intended to bum rapidly and vigorously when ignited.
Oxygen from the air is not necessary for the combustion of smokeless powders since they contain
sufficient built-in oxygen to burn completely, even in
an enclosed space such as the chamber of a firearm.
In effect, ignition occurs when the powder granules
are heated above their ignition temperature. This can
occur by exposing powder to:
1. A flame such as a match or primer flash.
2. An electrical spark or the sparks from welding,
grinding, etc..
3. Heat from an electric hot plate or a fire directed or
near a closed container even if the powder itself is
not exposed to the flame.
When smokeless powder burns, a great deal of gas at
high temperature is formed. If the powder is confined,
this gas will create pressure in the surrounding structure. The rate of gas generation is such, however, that
the pressure can be kept at a low level if sufficient space
is available or if the gas can escape.
In this respect smokeless powder differs from blasting agents or high explosives such as dynamite or
blasting gelatin, although smokeless powder may
contain chemical ingredients common to some of
these products.
High explosives such as dynamite are made to
detonate, that is, to change from solid state to gaseous
state with evolution of intense heat at such a rapid rate
that shock waves are propagated through any medium
in contact with them. Such shock waves exert pressure
on anything they contact, and, as a matter of practical
consideration, it is almost impossible to satisfactorily
vent away the effects of a detonation involving any
appreciable quantity of dynamite
Smokeless powder differs considerably in its burning characteristics from common black powder.
Black powder burns essentially at the same rate out
in the open (unconfined) as when in a gun.
When ignited in an unconfined state, smokeless
powder burns inefficiently with an orange-colored
flame. It produces a considerable amount of light
brown noxious smelling smoke. It leaves a residue of
ash and partially burned powder. The flame is hot
enough to cause severe bums.
The opposite is true when it burns under pressure as
in a cartridge fired in a gun. Then it produces very little
smoke, a small glow, and leaves very little or no
residue. The burning rate of smokeless powder increases with increased pressure.
If burning smokeless powder is confined, gas pressure will rise and eventually can cause the container to
burst. Under such circumstances, the bursting of a
strong container creates effects similar to an explosion.
For this reason, the Department of Transportation
(formerly Interstate Commerce Commission) sets
specifications for shipping containers for propellants
and requires tests for loaded containers - under actual
fire conditions - before approving them for use.
When smokeless powder in D.O.T. approved containers is ignited during such tests, container seams
split open or lids pop off - to release gases and powder
from confinement at low pressure.
How to Check Smokeless Powder for Deterioration
Although modern smokeless powders are basically
free from deterioration under proper storage conditions, safe practices require a recognition of the
signs of deterioration and its possible effects.
Powder deterioration can be checked by opening
the cap on the container and smelling the contents.
Powder undergoing deterioration has an irritating
acidic odor. (Dont confuse this with common solvent
odors such as alcohol, ether and acetone).
Check to make certain that powder is not exposed
to extreme heat as this may cause deterioration. Such
exposure produces an acidity which accelerates further reaction and has been known, because of the heat
generated by the reaction, to cause spontaneous combustion.
Never salvage powder from old cartridges and do
not attempt to blend salvaged powder with new
powder. Dont accumulate old powder stocks. The
best way to dispose of deteriorated smokeless powder
is to bum it out in the open at an isolated location in
small shallow piles (not over 1" deep). The quantity
burned in any one pile should never exceed one
pound. Use an ignition train of slow burning combustible material so that the person may retreat to a safe
distance before powder is ignited.

Considerations for Storage of
Smokeless Powder
Recommendations for Storage
of Smokeless Powder
Smokeless powder is intended to function by burning, so it must be protected against accidental exposure to flame, sparks or high temperatures.
For these reasons, it is desirable that storage enclosures be made of insulating materials to protect the
powder from external heat sources.
Once smokeless powder begins to burn, it will
normally continue to burn (and generate gas pressure)
until it is consumed.
D.O.T. approved containers are constructed to
open up at low internal pressures to avoid the effects
normally produced by the rupture or bursting of a
strong container.
Storage enclosures for smokeless powder should be
constructed in a similar manner:
1. Of fire-resistant and heat-insulating materials t
o protect contents from external heat.
2. Sufficiently large to satisfactorily vent the gaseous
products of combustion which would result if the
quantity of smokeless powder within the enclosure accidentally ignited.
If a small, tightly enclosed storage enclosure is
loaded to capacity with containers of smokeless powder, the walls of the enclosure will expand or move
outwards to release the gas pressure - if the powder in
storage is accidentally ignited.
Under such conditions, the effects of the release of
gas pressure are similar or identical to the effects
produced by an explosion.
Hence only the smallest practical quantities of smokeless powder should be kept in storage, and then in
strict compliance with all applicable regulations and
recommendations of the National Fire Protection
Association.
STORE IN A COOL, DRY PLACE. Be sure the
storage area selected is free from any possible sources
of excess heat and is isolated from open flame, furnaces, hot water heaters, etc. Do not store smokeless
powder where it will be exposed to the suns rays.
Avoid storage in areas where mechanical or electrical
equipment is in operation. Restrict from the storage
areas heat or sparks which may result from improper,
defective or overloaded electrical circuits.
DO NOT STORE SMOKELESS POWDER IN THE
SAME AREA WITH SOLVENTS, FLAMMABLE
GASES OR HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. STORE ONLY IN DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION APPROVED CONTAINERS.
Do not transfer the powder from an approved container into one which is not approved.
DO NOT SMOKE IN AREAS WHERE POWDER
IS STORED OR USED. Place appropriate NO
SMOKING signs in these areas.
THE STORAGE CABINETS SHOULD BE CONSTRUCTED OF INSULATING MATERIALS
AND WITH A WEAK WALL, SEAMS OR JOINTS
TO PROVIDE AN EASY MEANS OF SELFVENTING.
DO NOT KEEP OLD OR SALVAGED POWDERS. Check old powders for deterioration regularly. Destroy deteriorated powders immediately.
OBEY ALL REGULATIONS REGARDING
QUANTITY AND METHODS OF STORING.
Do not store all your powders in one place. If you can,
maintain separate storage locations. Many small containers are safer than one or more large containers.
KEEP YOUR STORAGE AND USE AREA
CLEAN. Clean up spilled powder promptly. Make
sure the surrounding area is free of trash or other
readily combustible materials.

Reloading Safety
Reloading is an enjoyable and rewarding hobby that is easily conducted with safety. But like many other
human endeavours, carelessness or negligence can make reloading hazardous. The essence of reloading safety
is proper handling and storage of primers and powder. As important is strict following of the instructions
given by the manufacturers of the reloading equipment as well as the reloading components.
Before you get started, read the safety rules below and keep them in mind whenever reloading. Attention
paid to detail and patience ensures safety and quality!
Reload only when you can give it your undivided attention. Do not reload, when fatigued or
ill. Develop your own reloading routine to avoid mistakes. Avoid haste, load at a leisurely place
and keep in mind that absolutely no reloading under the influence of alcohol or drugs!
Always wear proper eye protection. It is an unnecessary risk to reload without safety glasses.
Store powder and primers out of reach of children and away from heat and open fire. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions on your powder canister. Never smoke during a reloading
session!
Keep no more powder than needed available. Immediately return the unused powder to its
original factory container to preserve its identity and usable life time.
Do not use any powder unless its identity is positively known. Scrap all unidentified powders
according to the manufacturer's instructions on your powder canister. Keep in mind that the
trial-and-error method may lead to serious injury!
Do not store primers in bulk! Doing so will create a bomb! Bulk primers will very likely mass
detonate. The blast of a few hundred primers corresponds to a hand grenade in a room! Do not
force primers in any circumstances. Take special care when filling and handling auto primer feed
tubes. Keep primers in their original factory packing until used. Return unused primers to their
original packing.
Do not use primers if their identity is lost. Discard them according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
Start loading with the starting load according to the loading data. If there is no indication of the
starting load, use 15 % lower charge than the listed maximum load. Increase the charge using small
steps watching for overpressure signs from the primer and the case head at each step. If you detect
overpressure signs immediately stop shooting and reduce the charge. Disassemble always the
defected cartridges. NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM LOADS!
Check visually the powder level in the cases so you are absolutely sure that you have no double
powder charge. When a double powder charge is fired it may result in a gun damage, personal
injury, even death.
If you change the lot of any component or if you change any of the components of your reload,
you must develop your load from the starting load again. A different component as well as a
component from a different manufacturing lot may cause changes in cartridge pressure.
You must absolutely follow the given cartridge overall lengths (C.O.L.) according to the
reloading tables. The change in the bullet seating depth has a significant influence on the cartridge
pressure.
Never reduce loads under the listed starting load.
Keep your reloading bench in good order. Clean up spilled powder and primers promptly and
completely. Remember that the reloading bench is not a temporary store for other tools, used
car spare parts etc.
Use your reloading equipment according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Study the
instructions carefully and don't hesitate to ask, if you don't understand everything.

Reloading Safety
LEAD EXPOSURE
A continuous lead exposure has been found out to create lead accumulation to living bodies, specially to the
nervous system causing little by little serious physical impairment. Some unused reloading components as
well as fired cases can contain lead or lead compounds, it is possible to a reloader to get exposed during
reloading. Primers and bullets contain lead and it may be present as a residue in fired cartridge cases, too.
There are different ways lead may enter the body. However, the two most common are considered to be
the mouth and the breathing. Therefore with simple precautions described underneath the possible lead
exposure and its dangerous consequences can be avoided.
WASH YOUR HANDS thoroughly with warm water and soap after shooting or reloading.
DO NOT EAT OR DRINK during a reloading session. When handling fired cartridge cases the
residual containing lead most likely gets to your hands. Therefore eating something requiring a
straight hand contact during a reloading session hazards the reloader to lead exposure. Keep your
hands away from your nose or your mouth during a reloading session.
KEEP GOOD HOUSEHOLD AT YOUR RELOADING SITE. Regular cleaning prevents
the accumulation of residuals. Use a damp cloth or mop to clean up the reloading bench as well
as the floor underneath. DO NOT USE A VACUUM CLEANER! The use of it dues to a
potential risk of exposure because of spilled powder it collects up. Furthermore an ordinary
vacuum cleaner more spreads than collects up the dust containing residuals. Do not use any carpet
at your reloading site. Carpet is hard to keep dust-free and it can create static electricity that can
accidentally fire a primer.
PROTECT YOUR BREATHING AGAINST THE DUST IN THE RELOADING
AREA. When using a dry cleaning media in tumbling the cartridge cases keep in mind that the
lead residual from the fired cases moves to the dry cleaning media, where it accumulates by use.
Wear always a dust mask when pouring the dry cleaning media out of the tumbler and be careful
not to spill the media on your reloading bench.

Vihtavuori Smokeless Loads for Cowboy Action Shooting
About the Data
These loads are developed to give the velocities required
for the cowboy action shooting using revolvers with
lead bullets. The maximum load is determined by the
velocity limit about 300 m/s, or by the maximum
pressure limit according to the CIP October 1, 1992
rules. The bold text in the tables indicate the maximum
load according to CIP pressure level. The maximum
loads must never be exceeded.
All the listed loads are intended to be used in modern
firearms, which are according to the SAAMI requirements. Please use a competent gunsmith to evaluate that
the condition of your gun is adequate to be used with the
pressures indicated in the tables. The starting loads are
the lowest charges which appeared to give clean burning, i.e. no unburned residues in the barrel or in the case,
in our test shooting. This limit may, however vary
according to the revolver used.
There are some special features, which must be considered, when using reduced loads like the ones presented in the tables bellow. The same facts are equally valid
always when using any smokeless powder in such loads.
1) Double charges
Some of these loads are so small that throwing the load
twice in the same case is possible because of the large case
volume. Doubling the charge accidentally causes most
probably truly lethal chamber pressures. Therefore, it
is a must for everyone using this data to check
visually every single load for the double charge
before seating the bullet.
2) Free space in the case
When using charges which leave large amount of free
space in the case, the shooting characteristics may vary
largely depending on where the powder is located in the
case. If the powder lies totally in the bottom of the case
(i.e. in the end where primer is), the muzzle velocity and
especially the maximum pressure become much higher.
The maximum pressure may even be doubled when
same powder charge is moved from the bullet end to the
primer end of the case. This can simply be demonstrated

Warnings
Smokeless powder differs considerably in its burning
characteristics from common black powder. Black
powder burns essentially at the same rate in the open
(unconfined) as when in a gun. The burning rate of
smokeless powder increases with increasing pressure. If
burning smokeless powder is confined, gas pressure will
rise and eventually can cause the container or chamber
to burst. A slight increase in smokeless powder charge
after maximum load causes sharp increase in maximum
pressure in the chamber. Never exceed the maximum
loads.

by shaking the revolver barrel upwards or barrel downwards just before turning it smoothly in horizontal
position, aiming and shooting. Also the recoil may
transfer the powder in either end of the case. This is
sometimes seen as a velocity change between the first
shot and the following shots.
The shot to shot deviations in velocity and pressure
are normally increased when using load which leaves
the cases half empty. For this reason such loads are not
recommended for target loads. The data below is tested
in a way that the powder is as much as possible in the
primer side before firing, and therefore, the pressures
and the velocities represent the maximum values which
were obtained using our test equipment and cartridge
components indicated in the table.
3) Risk for underload detonation
This risk is always present when using highly reduced
loads of any smokeless powder. The large free space in
the case may generate a pressure wave which can cause,
in the worst case, powder to burn as a shock wave, i.e.
to detonate, instead of normal fast burning process. The
extremely sharp pressure peeks involved in detonation
can destroy the weapon and may lead to serious injury.
All these loads given here are extensively pressure
tested and no sings of underload detonation were found.
We strongly recommend everyone to follow strictly
these tables to minimize the risk for underload detonation.
