[QUOTE="Paper boy, post: 1891856, member: 110735"] Without question, VV powders are superior to many commonly found powders. I have won many titles with these. Lapua, Berger, VihtaVuori, are now all owned by Nammo Lapua Oy, a Finnish company that specialized, and still does in manufacturing military munitions and ultra high tech guided ordanance. These people REALLY know their stuff. At one time VV published a reloading manual for round for which they manufactured brass. last known issue was # 4 with a first printing in 2007. I know of no others since then. Of note, Berger has printed no new manuals since the first. I contacted Berger and got hold of a helpful guy that agreed they needed updated info but has not heard of any plans for new issues. Even with new cartriges entering the market. BUT, there is more. Sako, another Finnish company just made available the new S20 rifle in 6.5 prc. These companies all have close ties. To add to this, Tikka (a division of Sako) announced a new rifle is comming in 6.5 prc as well. With the introduction of new cartriges being announced so often, from Hornnady and Nosler and more in the pipe line to be sure, I believe that VV has been compiling info for later release. Reload data from Berger and VV for many of these are available on the web sites. Hope this helps. I'll post more as it becomes available. [/QUOTE]
