H4831

[Doug3006]

I know that H4831SC is supposed to be identical to plain old H4831. Just shorter cut grains to aid in metering. However, I’m loading for a 300 H&H with the older version and with 200 grain Nosler Partitions I get sub MOA groups. Using the SC variety, my groups double in size.

I know that the old version is no longer made. So, does anyone have some H4831 they can part with?

The problem you'd have is if someone who can spare it would have to ship it. Hard to do as a private individual.

I'm shocked to read this. I've used H4831 and H4831SC interchangeably, never had an issue.

Doug, try bumping the load a bit up or down. A slight load variation might get you back in the zone.

Where are you located? I do have a pound ( opened but nearly full ) that I would give to you if possible. I have always had more success with IMR4831 and am well supplied with that.

Hi J12! Thanks for the kind offer, but I’m in eastern Missouri. I’ll pay for the powder and shipping if you’re interested in the hassle.

I know, it’s strange. But I’ve learned over the years not to be surprised by anything when it comes to reloading. Damned alchemy it is!

Yup. That’s plan B.

 

[Joker12]

I'll check with UPS

I'll check with UPS to see if its possible and let you know what I find out.

 

[BryceM]

Possible, but there will be a hazmat charge. The shipping for just a single pound of powder is pretty expensive!

Thanks for checking it out!
