About this powder

IMR 4350 is one of the most historically significant American rifle powders — widely used for decades in hunting and target applications. Note: IMR 4350 burns slightly slower than Hodgdon H4350 despite the similar name, and they are NOT interchangeable without load data verification. Classic choice for .270 Win, .30-06, and belted magnums.
