Superperformance vs H4831

[miningshawn]

I haven't been able to source H4831 or H4831SC for a couple of years now, at least in a price range I am ready to pay.

I have a couple of load developments being "held up" by the lack of H4831. I can get Superperformance though.... (who am I kidding. I saw an 8 lb covered in dust for $228 and jumped on it)

Has anyone done an apples to apples comparison of these 2 powders? I'd like to hear your experience - including temperature sensitivity if possible. This is for a wildcat with absolutely no published data. The 4350 band works, but I am pretty certain the 4831 band would shine. BTW - I have the same issues finding VV160 and RL22, and IMR is non-existent in my area.

They are about the same burn rate. Try it and if there are NO pressure signs. you are good to go. Just my two cents Tommy Mc

It was O K I suppose in my 260AI but not as good as H-4831 Only tried one load and left it.

Superformance isn't a barn burner but I've gotten some decent accuracy with it in my 6.5 Creedmoor with 140 Hornady ELD-Ms out to 1000. I'm definitely handicapped when it comes to wind reading, but have managed to shoot under .5 MOA at 600 and just over .5 MOA at 1000 with it. Not a competition winner but I'm happy with it from a factory rifle.
