Folks, I have a problem.
Two pounds of Vhitavouri Oy N550 and not a jot nor tittle of loading information. Can someone tell me the bottom and top loads for: .30-06 in 165 grain and 200 grain bullets, and 6.5x55 in 140 and 160 grain bullets. I'll buy the dang book, but want to get started now. Thanks. |

Thank you both...
I just spoke with very cheerful and helpful lady at K-P who is sending me info. BK, thanks for the website, but the information they have is for the N100 series. Here's hoping they have information in the mail out regarding heavier bullet loads. What the heck is slow powder if'n you can't shoot heavy bullets?
