SNPE Vectan Tubal 8000

Vectan Tubal 8000 is a French-manufactured smokeless propellant produced by Eurenco, designed primarily for large-caliber rifle cartridges and magnum applications. It is a slow-burning powder, making it well-suited for heavy bullets in cartridges like .338 Lapua Magnum, .300 Winchester Magnum, and similar long-range calibers. The powder features a tubular grain geometry, which promotes consistent metering and progressive burning characteristics. Tubal 8000 is known for producing high velocities while maintaining acceptable pressure levels, and it performs particularly well in longer barrels where slow powders have more time to fully combust. It is widely used in European precision shooting and hunting communities.
