Hello
With my normal reloading powders now unobtainable and with my limited stocks dwindling, can anybody give any information on the powders they are using for the above calibres (( that are available)). as the situation is getting dire !, I will have to start shooting .58 muzzle stuffer as BP seems plentiful at the moment.

Viht N140 all the way for 303. Check the Viht website as my vIht guide recommends N140 for 8mm and 7.62 as well. In stock at Kranks

I switched to Vihtavuori 20 years ago because of the unreliable availability of yanque powders.
Never missed them, the Vihtavuori range does it all.
Yes I successfully use N140 for the calibres you quote.
