Vihtavuori N555 Smokeless Gun Powder

Looking for Vihtavuori N555 in stock? Designed specifically for precision rifle platforms, N555 excels in cartridges like 6mm Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor, .284 Winchester, .260 Remington, and .30-06 Springfield — particularly rifle calibers with large case volume paired with comparatively small bullet diameters. For safe charge weights, always consult Vihtavuori’s official load data before loading.

As part of Vihtavuori’s N500 series, N555 is an impregnated extruded rifle powder with nitroglycerol added for extra energy content, making it a strong alternative to the N100 series whenever higher loading densities are needed. It stands out as the most temperature-stable reloading powder in its class, delivering unprecedented performance specifically in the 6.5 Creedmoor — a real advantage for competitive shooters and hunters facing extreme weather conditions in the field.

Like all Vihtavuori powders, N555 includes an anti-fouling agent that minimizes barrel fouling, extending your time between cleanings during long competitive stages. Its unmatched lot-to-lot consistency also means less costly range time spent re-developing favourite loads between batches. With an energy content of 3,700 J/g and a burn rate sitting between N550 and N160, N555 fills a precise niche for serious precision shooters.
