Please Confirm H4831sc vs H4831

[JasonYuke]

I have read this and just need some solid confirmation that H4831 SC (short cut) will use the same data as the traditional H4831, Just a refined powder and easier to meter?

Thank You

For the most part yes. Short mags might have been the reason for its intro. It is a bit faster burn. Good powder.

According to Hodgon, it's burn rate is the same, and it was introduced to make metering easier.

I have found it works abotuthe same, certainly no more difference in burn rate than changing one lot of powder for the next.

It is always prudent, especially when working with max loads, to work up a load based on each lot number. Canister grade powders do very well at remaining consistant over years and lots, but they are not perfect.

According to Hodgson the burn rate is the same ... but according to Sierra's
lab, the SC burns slightly quicker and at a somewhat higher pressure than the regular H4831.

I've used them interchangably and never found a difference - sometimes one or the other isn't available when I am buying and it doesn't seem to matter.

Burn rate is supposed to be the same according to the info and I have never seen different results on the performance of my loads.

I use h4831sc in my 270. There is know difference that i could notice. The only difference is you can notice is the case will take more grains.
