N165 rifle powder – Vihtavuori

When you want to achieve outstanding long-term performance,, N165 is your choice of rifle powder!

N165 Powder

Vihtavuori N165 is a universal powder for large bullets in magnum rifle calibers. It works particularly well in.338 Lapua Magnum with 250 gr bullets, although it may be used in a wide range of calibers ranging from.555 SE to.416 Rigby.

N165 Powder

The N165 powder grains have the same size (1,3 mm length x 1,0 mm diameter) as its “big brother” N160, but the surface coating causes a change in burning properties.

N165 is a highly slow-burning powder that is preferable to N160 when employing bigger bullets in the same range of cartridges. Because N165 can produce somewhat greater velocity, it is a superb choice for long-range shooting and big-game hunting.
