Since N133 is a Vihtavuori powder, I doubt you'll find it mentioned in any US-published loading manuals. However there is a free online loading manual and an app - I use both.

The latest hornady manual has 52/53/55/60gr data for Vhit-133.

The main purpose of the manual not the load data, it will set out the process and how to do it safely, if you don't get a manual get "The ABCs of reloading" it is vey good, plenty of sources of data out ther but stick with published data whether that printed or on powder/bullet manufacturers websites.

Some good info and advice online but some very bad too so knowing how to tell the bad from the good is where a manual will help.

Look for "one book/one calibre, complete reloading manual", like item 292099805112 on the bay.

all the different manufacturers load info for heads & powders for a specific calibre.

Often not up to date data though, most manufacturers have data online now

They do that. I was giving a newbie a whistle stop tour of loading yesterday (with the caveat that I will actually come over and help set his kit up and do the first few with him).

I pointed out that the old sierra data book I have has 2 different OALs with the same bullet for the initial spec drawing. Good job it aint critical eh?
