H4895

[Sheltowee]

Fully understand H4895 is about as obtainable as fairy dust right about now, but if anyone has a pound or two to spare within a 12 hour drive of the front range I'd be interested in buying it. Face to face only.

Imr4895 work?

 

[Sheltowee]

I could probably make it work-- they are just about next to each other on the burn rate chart-- but my understanding is that the IMR is quite a bit more temp sensitive than the Hodgdon. I can bide my time for a little bit.

There's an 8lb and 1.5lb on Gunbroker. It's expensive, but if you're willing to make a 24hr round trip somewhere to get it, it might be worth it for you.

Saw those. Hard to tell on the 8lb but I'd guess the 1.5lb to be at least 12ish years old. Both containers have the old metal caps.

I have pounds of H4895 that is at least 10 years old that has been broken down into 1# bottles so it isn't factory sealed. It shoots no different than the factory sealed brand new powder.

Just fyi-- H4895 is back in stock at Midway Dot Com as of this morning.

Powder Valley and "coming soon" at Scheels, too.
