IMR4350 vs H4350?

[Tacoma]

Is there much difference. I See in some load tables that they have slight variances in safe max loads but can't find out much more.

AA4350 - IMR4350 - and H4350 Are all Very Close in burn Rate. I have used all Three. They all act a little diff from each other. So Pick the one you can find and work up a load using it and see what happens.

Flip a coin, they work the same.

I caught flack for saying it on TFL and other forums, but my testing indicated that the load data for IMR, Hodgdon and Accurate versions of 4350 is interchangeable. I got similar velocities with similar SD for all 3 powders, all other variables being equal.

I have used all 3, and I have found some variations, with slightly smaller quantities of H being required for best groups.

If you are not loading max, and are not after bench rest type groups, either will work well.

Thanks Gents, that s'planes it just fine.

Accurate Arms told me that their 4350 was a ballistic copy of IMR 4350. My H4350 is a little different. All of these are so close that you should buy by price.
