Vhit # 130

I just acquired a 2# bottle of vhitivouri #130 at a reasonable price.  On the comparative table its in about the same range as 4759 and 4227.  Does anyone have any loading data on it--or know of a website that might have data---I'm want to try it in an 8.15x46r

The Viht. web site shows 20 gr of #130 for 1680fps behind a 170 gr jacketed bullet in a 30-30 win.   Anyone want to WAG how that'd do with a 180-200 gr cast 24-1 P.B. Pb bullet in a 8.15 case?

DW I believe that is the powder Bernie Harrel set all of his CBA National records with. You would need to go to the CBA site and look up his past equipment data. He shot with the Emerald Empire Gun Club group but I don't recall when he switched to #9. He shot a 32 Miller Short so it might not be helpful information and you would have to search all they years in hopes of finding it.

Can this be backed up by something written?

Or is this itself another internet roumor?

I have the closing as a written fact from the Danish whole sale distributor. In Danish but none the less a written fact from someone who has been told by the horses mouth.

Update:

From the horses mouth.
Lapua/Nammo are negotiating a take over but nothing is definitive yet.
