I would like some thoughts and experience with Accurate 4350 got some i need to use up..
It's good powder.
I think H4350 is just a little better, though. So I'll probably use my AA4350 sometime after the H4350 runs out. That could be a long time from now.
I started reloading with IMR powders and they've always worked for me but AA 4350 meters a lot better and gives comparable velocity and accuracy to IMR 4350 in my rifles.
AA4350 has worked as well for me as either of the other versions. YMMV
I used AA4350 to load 100gr. Hornady SP in my brother's .243. He's been taking deer for years with those loads. I normally go with H4350 but have no problem using the AA4350 as a replacement.
thanks for the info guys i picked aa4350 when imr 4350 was almost impossible to find
I've only compared them side-by-side in my .260 Remington. I like them both but I got a super deal on 20 lbs of XMR-4350 so I'm set.

I've had excellent luck with A4350, along with several other of the latest Accurate powders, which are all being made for them, unlike the earlier surplus powders which could vary considerably.

My
thought is to give the powder to a wanting soul for the
experience since you
need to use it up.

Welcome to the fire!!!!
P.S. Never used AA4350. For me IMR4350 and RL17 shot a little better than H4350.
Have a great day

I haven't seen Accurate in stock anywhere so I can't comment - would love to get my hands on some 2520 if it ever becomes available up here in the Great White North.
The lot of AA4350 I have is 6-8 years old. Works fine and accuracy is comparable to other 4350 powders. However, I have to use approximately two grains more of the AA powder to get the same velocity as H4350 produces in .30-06 with 180 grain bullets.
