Thats what I was hoping for when I had called originally. I figured with Hodgdon being the parent company to (or I'm guessing), and listing load data for Winchester and IMR, there'd be something out there in that new IMR line that would be a re-named equivalent.
At $30 a pound, experimenting can get expensive.
Based on the answer I got, none of the new lines are close to SR4756.
Oh well, I appreciate the info and insight gentlemen. I look forward to continue lurking here.
The question I posed by way of e-mail yesterday was-
Mornin
I was loading .38 spl with SR4756, and was having really good luck with it.
Unfortunately for me, I've depleted my supply and its no longer being produced.
I see there is a line of new powders ( Red, Green, Blue, etc)
Out of that line of new powders, which would be the most similar, or an exact replacement (as close as possible) to SR4756? (burn rate, pressure, etc)
Thank you in advance,
Dan
So the answer I got was-
I am sorry there would not be a direct replacement for this powder. 800X and HS6 would be the closest in burn speed to this powder.
