What is N320 powder used for?

Sport and hobby shooters, especially Cowboy Action competitors, load N320 for accurate, clean-burning handgun ammunition, and Vihtavuori notes that its reliability also suits authority applications. The built-in decoppering agent helps keep bores clean between sessions.

One Graf & Sons reviewer reports a very accurate .38 Special load with a 125 grain flat point bullet, and a gun that still looked clean after 50 rounds.

Which handgun cartridges can I load with N320?

Vihtavuori lists N320 for a wide range of pistol calibers from .32 through .45, which covers many common target and Cowboy Action cartridges. The 4 lb container gives regular handgun reloaders a lasting supply from one lot. Use current Vihtavuori load data for every cartridge and bullet combination.

Is N320 suitable for Cowboy Action loads?

Yes. Vihtavuori names Cowboy Action shooters among the most common N320 users, because the powder delivers clean, reliable handgun loads across the .32 to .45 range that many single-action revolvers use.

Graf & Sons has supplied handgun reloaders since 1957 and carries Vihtavuori powders alongside the bullets, brass, and primers to complete each load.
