Unverified, By Hodgdon, but some wholesalers are listing it as so.but it seems likely, as they also handle H4895 ------------- Don't shoot till you see the whites of their thighs. (Unofficial motto of the Royal Air Force) |

| Wow, that's an old standby powder. I think Hodgdon is the IMR distributor now. Not sure who actually makes it. H4895 is a bit different, charge weights a bit different for the same velocity. |

Agreed! Yeah Hogdons is the source for both. They still list it. & I just switched to IMR4895 for all the .303s & the 7.62!  Oh well, Reloader 15 I guess? ------------- Don't shoot till you see the whites of their thighs. (Unofficial motto of the Royal Air Force) |

| I’ve had very good success with Re 15 in the .303. It’s a double based powder however and fairly temp sensitive. |
