N568 Vihtavuori Powder

[Phil Rizzo]

I'm running 80grs 568 in a .300 win, 200gr accubond and fed 215m.
2950fps is nothing special but the accuracy is .25 moa@300yds.
keeper for me.

It does great in the 7mm mag

Kasey have you tried it in 7 prc yet?

N568 would be too slow for the 7 PRC in my opinion. With a standard 300 Norma and 230's, it was drop tube territory to reach 2980 in a 26" barrel with 90 grains.

Yea. I'm not even gonna bother. But i couldn't pass up the deal haha. I tried retumbo today but it wasn't better than my load with N560

65.5 Gr of N560 with 170 Gr Hammer Hunter Tipped going 3015 fps avg out of a 24" barrel. My 14 year old son killed a cow elk at 820 yards with this load.

I could squeak some more velocity out of it but it is the most accurate at close to 3000 range. I'll get .3-.5 MOA out of it. N560 is a great powder for the 7 PRC.

Oh it's definitely hype. Doesn't do anything a 7 mag won't do. After I got one, I convinced two buddies to just get a 7 mag. It's only nice if you don't reload.
