Vihtavuori Powders

Vihtavuori Smokeless Powder – the Power of Accuracy

Vihtavuori powders have been at the heart of many of the world’s most recognized cartridges for nearly a century. Reloaders know they can rely on the performance and consistent high quality of Vihtavuori smokeless powders to produce a great product for effective shooting, cartridge after cartridge.

When you use our reloading powder, you can be confident that your ammunition will perform well even in the most adverse conditions. Take Vihtavuori, and make the perfect shot.

Why choose Vihtavuori Powders for Reloading?

Vihtavuori is well-known for creating high-quality propellants with consistent ballistic performance, a long shelf life, and a wide range of options. Our gun powders all meet the stringent criteria of both civilian and military applications.

They’re Clean Burning

The utilization of only the best raw ingredients is a well-known feature of all Vihtavuori powders. We take great satisfaction in making a very pure and clean burning powder, which allows us to shoot for longer periods of time between cleanings.

Our rifle and handgun powders’ clean-burning qualities result in significantly less carbon build-up and powder fouling, resulting in extended barrel life for rifles.

They come with a Decoppering agent

We’ve started adding a decoppering agent to all of our smokeless powders after significant research and development. This additive prevents the adhesion and accumulation of copper fouling in the bore, or the inside of a firearm’s barrel.

Excessive jacket material fouling is a well-known and confirmed cause of shot accuracy loss. To keep a rifle working at its best, fouling must be cleared on a regular basis.

Our revolutionary decoppering chemical prevents much of the barrel fouling from forming in the first place, thus extending your shooting sessions and barrel life.

They’re extremely temperature stable

Temperature stability in reloading powders has always been an issue for shooters, but with recent advancements in Long Range and ELR shooting, it has become a serious concern.

Long-range shooting puts more strain on ammo, equipment, and the shooter himself. To enable a shooter to achieve these expectations, the technique must be refined and variables that diminish hit probability must be eliminated.

With the development of increasingly temperature-insensitive propellants, Extreme Spreads and Standard Deviation can be considerably reduced, resulting in less vertical dispersion on target.

They’re lot-to-lot consistent

Smokeless propellants are an organic compound made up of a number of carefully regulated base ingredients. Every run of our smokeless powders must be tightly matched to extremely stringent requirements in terms of grain shape, chemistry, and performance when compared to earlier runs of that powder.

This strenuous procedure necessitates continuous testing, verification, and correction to guarantee that each run is entirely compatible with those that came before and after it. This is a fundamental tenet of our powder manufacturing concept. Every stage of our manufacturing process requires exceptional precision and quality.

Vihtavuori is experienced, quality craftsmanship for the perfect ammo

We manufacture all of our propellants in-house, ensuring their high quality. All of our reloading powders are created with nitrocellulose produced in-house. Vihtavuori rifle and pistol powders provide continuously faultless fire performance, resulting in the dependable reloading and ammunition you want.

Our experts execute thorough quality control at each stage of the production process to ensure that each production batch has the exact ballistic performance necessary. Each batch generated is inspected by comparing it to a set of reference batches.

Extruded propellants are used in all Vihtavuori powders for customers. For particular uses, propellant grains are perforated cylinders of various sizes, flat ribbon flakes, or other shapes extruded. The grain shape of various types of gunpowder offers the desired combustion characteristics for the cartridge application.

Vihtavuori gunpowders have a minimum shelf life of 10 years if stored and sealed in their original containers at a temperature of 20°C and relative humidity of 55%.
