Hodgdon H4350

Hodgdon H4350 is a medium-slow burning extruded powder and is part of Hodgdon’s Extreme line of powders. Like Varget, this is an iconic powder and is extremely temperature stable.

When dealing with any powder labeled 4350, it is important to remind newer reloaders that there are several powders that use this number in their label. The original, IMR 4350, was and is excellent when used in the 30-06. It was popular enough for other manufacturers to create their own powders in this burn range and label it as a 4350 powder.

Remember, each powder is an individual, and load data should never be interchanged. Just because it says 4350 doesn’t mean it’s the same powder, just that it’s similar in burn speed. Hodgdon H4350, tends to be one of the faster 4350 powders available.

As a temperature stable extruded powder, Hodgdon H4350 carries the same benefits and drawbacks as Varget, just at a different burn range. It also carries the same drawback of being out of stock for years with each ammo panic.

H4350 is ideally used in the 30-06 and the new “whiz-bang” 6.5mm short-action cartridges, with the 6.5 Creedmoor being the most popular. These cartridges, while trendy, have become extremely popular because they are low-recoil but still have plenty of power for deer and pig hunting.
