Default Quick ?

Is Hodgden PB Powder the same as IMR PB? Are the recipes the same? I have never used it but have a few cans of each that I will get into soon given I am clear on the individual properties.
Thanks

I asked the same question and was told the powders are the same. I have a stock pile of PB and use either with the recipes.

All the powder companies have loading charts on their internet sites. They are there for us to use and the companies recommend that we use them. If you are loading out of an IMR can, use the IMR chart, and the converse.
