IMR4350 vs H4350?
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. |
