N530
This is the fastest burning powder in the N500 series and its burning rate is close to Vihtavuori N135 and Hodgdon BL-C(2). Developed especially for the 5,56 mm NATO-cartridges and it gives excellent performances in many .45-70 Government loads and also in .308 Winchester loads with bullet weight less than 10 grams (155 grains).
N540
Faster burning powder with a burning rate like with N140 and close to Hodgdon H414 and Winchester 760. To situations where more power is needed, especially for .223 Remington, .308 Winchester and .30-06 Springfield loads with heavier bullets.
N550
Burning rate is like with N150 and close to IMR 4350 and Reloder 19. Good choice for more powerful loads for 6,5x55 SE, .308 Winchester, .30-06 Springfield and for many others.
N560
Burning rate is between N160 and N165 and close to Norma MRP and Reloder 22. Powder especially for Magnum cartridges to get out the best power for example from .270 Winchester, 7 mm Remington Magnum, 7 mm Weatherby Magnum, .300 Winchester Magnum, .300 Weatherby Magnum and .338 Lapua Magnum.
N570
This is the newest member of the N500 series powders and also the slowest burning. The burning rate of N570 is near to N170 and it is faster burning than 24N41. The characteristics of this high energy powder with large grain size bring out the best in most of the large volume cases like for example in 6,5-.284 Norma, .300 Winchester Magnum, .300 Remington Ultra Magnum, .338 Lapua Magnum and .30-378 Weatherby Magnum.
