I only use H414 in .22-250 but I recall an old old gunzine headline when it was new on the market: "This may be what Winchester uses in factory .30-06!"

Since the Hodgdon takeover of Winchester powder distribution, they have rationalized W760 and H414 as the same stuff. I started with some older powders of those labels that were definitely not the same.
