About this powder
N360 occupies the slower end of the Vihtavuori pistol powder spectrum, bridging into magnum revolver territory. Excellent for full-power 10mm Auto, .357 Mag with 158-180 gr bullets, and .44 Special at standard velocities. Less common in the US than the N320-N350 range but valued for its versatility.
