If someone has a copy of this it would be great to see it posted to the forum or hosted on a website where it can be accessed.

Hot off the press from that very nice Mikmak.
TR 140 leaflet & data.pdf
(626.05 KiB) Downloaded 124 times
I have some test data and the HSE sheets if anyone would like a copy.

The following note is made: TR140 has similar characteristics to Vihtavuori N140, but is not identical and published loads are not interchangeable.

Thanks Dave,

Now I have a small problem (apart from that, silly)

As my only internet access presently is with my Ipad and the second page of the data sheet is upside down, when I turn the pad upside down the data sheet is upside down.

:lol:

Thanks for the data sheet interesting but to be honest I think I will stick with N140 or one of the other well known brands of powder there is a lot more data for these powders.

I am still puzzled as to why the dealer would sell this powder to a guy that is new to reloading with out giving him a data sheet for it. In fact I can not understand why he did not advise him to purchase one of the more well known brands to start with. :roll:

I've never been given or offered data sheet when buying powder (apart from TR140 from the importer) but then again I'm adult enough to research what I am doing.
As for TR140, all I can say is that it is probably the best value for money powder that you can buy, and the original poster was sold it as it a powder that is as good as N140 (if not better) and a damn sight cheaper. That means more bangs for your bucks.
