Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Help locating Power

Is anyone else having any problems locating any IMR-4350? Live here on the Gulf Coast in MS and it seems like it all of a sudden disappeared, no one has any. Am using the powder for the .260 Rem. Know that Hogdon bought out IMR, maybe this is the case of the ghost powder, any suggestions out there for a near identical replacement ??

AA4350 or H4350 will work at close to the same loading (or W760-H414 for ball) but you should work up with proper data. I don't think IMR4350 will be dropped any time soon. It's one of the all time favorite hunting powders and Hodgdon knows that. Must be a supply problem in your area. That's one of the few powders that I can always buy in Ark. BM

I noticed last time in town,that Hodgdon is switching the IMR powders over to plastic canisters,could be thats the holdup? They say the current IMR line will remain the same. Dunno.
