[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1193544, member: 2736"] I don't have a lot of experience with the Vihtavuori powders state side because they are hard to find and 2+ times the price of other powders, "BUT" the ones I have used are very good. I have a wildcat 338 that holds 114 to 119 grains of N570 and will push a 300 grain bullet at just over 3150 ft/sec with out trashing the cases. The N570 appears to be the best choice in this cartridge (338 Texan) and it should work well in 338 cases of more than 100 grain capacity. Quick load shows other powders are close, but not quite as fast @ the same pressures. In the states N 570 runs about $50.00 a pound while other powders are $20.00 to $30.00 a pound. Good luck J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
