Versatile extruded rifle powder in 1 lb canister. Accurate across multiple calibers including .308 Winchester, .458 Winchester, .17 Remington, and .250-3000 Savage. Easy to measure with consistent results.
H4895 stands as one of the most adaptable rifle powders available to the handloader. This extruded propellant delivers consistent accuracy across a remarkable range of cartridges, making it an essential component for serious reloaders.
H4895 traces its lineage to military service in the .30-06 Springfield, where it proved its reliability under demanding conditions. Bruce Hodgdon recognized its potential for civilian reloaders and made it the first powder offered to the public—a decision that has stood the test of time.
This powder performs exceptionally well in:
Easy Metering: The extruded granule design measures consistently and predictably, reducing the variables that affect accuracy.
Clean Burning: Produces minimal fouling, extending barrel life and reducing cleaning requirements.
Proven Reliability: Over 60 years of Hodgdon's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction backs every canister.
Each 1 lb canister provides ample powder for serious handloading projects. The convenient size allows experimentation across multiple calibers without excessive inventory.
For the reloader seeking a single powder that delivers accuracy and consistency across diverse cartridges, H4895 remains the standard by which others are measured.
