It's from Finland, I think?
I ordered some but want to clarify some load parameters since none of my manuals mention this brand.
For my 357 revolvers. They're all old, no longer manufactured. Etc. Pythons. 27-2s/pre 27. 66 no dash/-1. Etc.
Because of their age, I don't shoot magnum loads in them. I load loads around the level of 38 special +p.
These will be once fired cases, mixed headstamp, Berrys plated 148 grain double ended wadcutters.
I typically load ~5 grains Unique but am going to experiment with the VihtaVuori given current supply chain problems. Saving my Unique, so to speak.
On their website, VihtaVuori does not give data for a 148 grain bullet with the 3N37 powder. They do give data for a 146 grain bullet. Starting load 5.4 grains=863 fps. Max load 6.1 grains=1018 fps.
There shouldn't be any problem starting with 5.4 grains for a plated 148 grain bullet, correct?
