With Hodgdon vs IMR, there may be some difference. I use Hodgdon 4895 for .308 loads but if I could not find H4895, I would not hesitate to use IMR 4895 but would conduct my powder work up again just to be sure. I do this for different lots of rifle powder when using the same brand powder when I am working near max load data and even when I change primer brand.Hodgdon purchased IMR Powder Company in October 2003. IMR powders continue to be manufactured in the same plant and with the same exacting performance criteria and quality assurance standards ... In March 2006, Hodgdon Powder Company and Winchester Ammunition announced that Winchester branded reloading powders would be licensed to Hodgdon.
