Vihtavuori N540 is a versatile rifle powder engineered for a wide range of medium-sized calibres, making it ideal for both hunting and target shooting applications. It is an excellent choice for popular cartridges such as .223/5.56mm, .308 Winchester, and .30-06 Springfield, particularly when using heavier bullet weights.

• Outstanding Accuracy: Delivers consistent and precise results for demanding shooters.
• Exceptionally Clean Burning: Minimises residue build-up, contributing to firearm longevity and easier maintenance.
• Enhanced Velocity: Part of the N500 series, N540 offers an extra energy content, achieving velocities up to 30-40 m/s higher compared to the N100 series at the same pressure level. This is beneficial for heavier bullets, higher loading densities, and increased muzzle velocities.
• Easy Metering: Thanks to its symmetrical granular size (1.0mm length and 1.0mm diameter), N540 meters consistently in reloading equipment, simplifying the loading process.

For target shooting and varminting, consider a N540 powder load of 2.45gm / 37.8gr with the 7.8gm / 120gr OTM Scenar-L bullet in 6.5x47 Lapua calibre.
N540 is also an excellent choice for the .223 Rem when using heavy bullets from 69gr to 82gr / 4.5gm to 5.3gm.

Vihtavuori N540 rifle powder is available in 1lb and 1kg bottles, as well as 8lb containers.
