Is there a difference between Hogdon H4198 and IMR 4198 powder. loading 40-65-260 with 23 grains of IMR 4198? Thanks Bill

Bill,

In all of the many different cartridges I load with 4198, there is a very minimal difference in the grain weight for the two powders.  I personally use them interchangeably.  Simply start at or near the minimum load for H41198 and then work up from there.
