Close to interchangable? Not really? Completely different?
I'm looking for some loads for the 300 Win mag, and these three appear a lot, and I happen to have just acquired some H4831 and some H4831SC.

In practical terms the H4831's are slightly slower than IMR4831, and also less temperature-sensitive, especially in cold. H4831 and the Short Cut verisons are, for all practical purposes, the same--except the SC meters a heck of a lot better!

So, in general, if I have lots of H4831, I can load to a IMR4831 recipie without getting into to much trouble?
Example: Barnes shows 68.0 grains of IMR4831 under a 100 grain TSX as tops; 68.0 of H4831 should be slightly below max?

Yes, there should be no problem with that.
