[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 2033921, member: 34065"] As powder has become hard to get I found that VV N133 was available at a couple places last week. I bought 16lbs due to VV website talking about it being designed for 6PPC and .223 with light to mid weight bullets. I took a gamble and figured I’d try it while something was available. It’s since been all bought up as well. I’ve been researching and find very little info on it and most is 10+ years old (hope I found a sleeper powder). Was just hoping for some reassurance for my gamble and wanted to see if anyone had any great loads to share. Sounds like it may be fairly temp stable and clean? I am in AZ so we have huge temperature swings. The blowback from the suppressor dirty‘s up the ammo in the magazine pretty darned fast. It’s for my 16” suppressed AR-15 in .223 WYLDE with a 1:8 twist and primarily my varmint gun but fun to shoot at the range off a bench once in a while. I’ve only shot factory Hornady V-max and Z-max ammo through it and shoots .75” pretty consistently. I will be using LC .556 brass, 55 Grn Hornady V-max, and have a few different SRP’s I can use. Wolf NC223 Small mag primers, CCI #450’s, BR4’s, Rem. 7-1/2 Bench, Fed 205M and Fed AR 205M (not trying to brag about my SRP collection) [/QUOTE]
