Flood Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 For those major .40 Limited shooters, yesterday I went to order N320 only to find in out everywhere I looked. I called the US distributor and they said at least two months or maybe more before they get any more back in the country. Did some research and decided to try Alliant e3 after several recommendations. Ordered from Graf and Sons. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooster Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Go to every dealer you can and fill out when it’s back in stock to notify. That’s what I did and last Graf and sons notified me and I was able to score 4 lbs. also n330 is in stock at quite a few places and works great. It’s slower but everything else is good. Meters fine, and pretty clean and you a much better range of loads from minimum to max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distant Thunder Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 You might try powdervalleyinc.com as they have the 4 lb. containers available. Looks like they're sold out of the 1 lb. jugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Explosiveo Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Nice. They were out yesterday.Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to use it, but back in 2012-2013 started trying other powders when I couldn't find n320. I think vectan prima sv and ba9.5 are actually better than n320 (and much cheaper), but I bought the last 26 lbs of prima sv in america last year, and they seem to have stopped importing it. sport pistol tho is pretty much available everywhere.

zzt Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 VV powder availability is too spotty to rely on. My Limited major go to load for years was 3.6gr e3 under a poly coated 180 for 172 PF. I went to 3.7gr for some different poly coated bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I originally posted Tuesday they had 123 4 lb. jugs. We competition shooters are a thirsty (hungry?) lot. And no, I already had my supply in hand.

S&W686 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 You are correct on the amount of VV N320 that was available. I have several 4lb jugs, but did order two more 4lb jugs just in case there is a shortage. Grab a few primers also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Soft and insanely low ES and SD. I have switched to it for 9mm, 40, and 45. I just started trying it out about 5 weeks ago and ordered 4/5lb containers yesterday. Nice metering and as soft as Clays which I had used since 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Explosiveo Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Thanks. I picked up some as well. I know N320 is very clean and soft shooting. I was wondering how Clean Shot compaired. Much better price. Not that it matters that much.Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
