Continental Shooter Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) Hi, I got the same powder and it was sold to me as similar to SIPE. Lovex do produce powder for NSI so, that could be right. I load it as i would with the SIPE so, the best can be obtained up to 26 gr (for 1,15/1,20 of powder) the best performing shell i tested was 20/70 T2 615 120 x 26 SG25 star crimped at 59.5 mm (705 bar, 409 ms V1) if you can load it with a B&P wad Z2M22 (and a 28 ga card inside the cup) you'll have lower pressure. however, i used to do a nice hard hitting shell in 20/70 T3 fiocchi 615 1,20 x 27 B&P Z2M 22 star crimp @ 59.8mm which is a hard hitter but within safety if loaded with SIPE N; with Lovex, it hasn't been tested so, i'd avoid trying it. I advise against loading anything above 27gr with this powder without proofing it before. Now, it's also interesting to note the below which i found on the Lovex web site: We note all users that the company Proper Cartridges (Great Britain) without justification offers smokeless powders Lovex for reloading purposes in canisters not approved by us. Company Explosia a.s. significantly dissociates from such business practices, and declares that it is not liable for the quality of these distributed propellants. Explosia a.s. also refuses any responsibility for injury of the handling with this gunpowders. Many Thanks, Edited March 11, 2016 by Continental Shooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
