VihtaVuori N130: The Multipurpose Rifle Powder
Optimal Choice for Diverse Rifle Calibers
The VihtaVuori N130 rifle powder, known for its versatility, is an excellent choice for a variety of rifle calibers. Particularly effective for small game hunting and target shooting, the N130 has become a staple in the ammunition of many shooters for its reliability and consistent performance.
Trusted in Factory-Loaded and Handloading Applications
Widely used in factory-loaded .22 and 6 mm PPC cartridges, the N130 powder is also an outstanding match for handloading lighter bullets in calibers like .223 Remington. Additionally, it excels in straight-wall rifle cases such as the .45-70 Government and the .458 Winchester Magnum, offering versatility and precision in various shooting disciplines.
Unique Physical Properties for Enhanced Performance
The N130 is a single-base, tubular rifle powder, with grain dimensions of 1.0 mm in length and 0.6 mm in diameter. Its fast burning rate on the VihtaVuori rifle powder scale contributes to its exceptional performance. Fun fact: While N130 shares the same grain size as N133 and N135, differences in surface coatings result in distinct burning behaviors, showcasing the nuanced engineering behind VihtaVuori powders.

Vihtavuori N130
This stuff is great. I’ve only loaded 223 Rem with it. Through over 3 grains of testing at .3 gr, all groups (3 shots) avg under .4 MOA including .23, .21, .18, etc… I’ve been on a quest all year to find the best load with V-Max 40 grains in twin chambered bolt guns… one 18” and other is 26”. I’ve loaded a ton of different powders and found my best load with RL 10X at well under 1/2 MOA @ 100 yards over many groups… untiI I loaded N130. Velocity is 100 FPS better than 10X at respective charges annd well faster than anbything else I’ve tried. Accuracy is consistently better as well though 10X is great accuracy as well. I’ve loaded Benchmark, X-terminator, TAC, IMR4895, H335 and a bunch of other powders in pursuit of this load and am completely happy with it. However, I’ve only shot in hot weather to mid-weather 90s down to 60s, and haven’t tried it in the cold yet but I’m guessing it should be great. It’s a keeper… now I’m on to try N133 and N135 next as well as 8208 XBR and Win 748.
