I have been using Vihtavuori powder N135 and N140 for 308 loads and love the results. Very accurate and meters very smoothly. Any one have experience loading 2000gr , 220gr, 250 gr bullets in the Holy 348Win with any Vihtavuori powder??? Loads for 30-30, 300savage, 250-3000 savage, 358 Win would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: Vihtavuori reloading data for 348 Winchester
I believe that I saw on another site, that Vihtavuori is going to cease producing powders next month. Anyone else heard the same?

Re: Vihtavuori reloading data for 348 Winchester
As of 6/4/2012, there is a quote, reportedly from Adam Braverman, the Marketing Manager for Lapua and Vihtavuori, that they will stay in business:

But then, there is a statement that the sale of a plant should not affect distribution using the words, "short term."
