H50 BMG discontinued

[6MT]

So it looks like H50 BMG has been discontinued. For those of us who shoot the big cartridge, it's disappointing. I suppose US869 will be the go-to powder moving forward.

Alliant has some powder.

Thanks guys - I appreciate that Geno C called Hodgdon & also those who've said where its at.
I think Alliant Reloder 50's popularity and usefulness probably had something to do with this (IMO).

Thanks, - Ron -

There's Vihtavuori 24N41 and 20n29.
Not cheap,250 for the 20n29 and 209 for the
24N41.

Reloader-50 Works better with heavier projectiles (over 750 gr).

I too, called Hodgdon, because I just got a certificate for Any 8lb Jug of Hodgdon or IMR powder (except no H4350). I had plans to get the H50-BMG and then trade it for an 8lb jug of Reloader-50. I guess I'll end up getting a powder for one of my mouse guns (Varget or IMR-4350)
