Eliminate Velocity Variations with Hodgdon H4350 Powder
If you are tired of watching your groupings shift as the temperature changes, it is time to upgrade your reloading bench. Hodgdon H4350 Powder is widely recognized across the precision rifle shooting community as the gold standard for long-range consistency and absolute reliability. Part of Hodgdon’s legendary Extreme series of extruded propellants, this medium-slow burn rate powder is engineered specifically to withstand environmental extremes while squeezing every ounce of ballistic potential out of your handloads.
Why Serious Handloaders Choose Hodgdon H4350 Extreme Powder
For decades, competitive PRS shooters and serious big-game hunters have trusted this smokeless propellant to deliver tight groups and single-digit standard deviations. Hodgdon has continuously modernized the formula, ensuring it meets the rigorous demands of modern precision rifle cartridges.
Unbeatable Temperature Stability
Standard rifle powders are highly sensitive to weather fluctuations, resulting in dangerous pressure spikes in hot weather or frustrating velocity drops during freezing winter hunts. Hodgdon H4350 solves this vulnerability entirely. Its unique chemical formulation ensures that your point of impact stays exactly the same whether you are shooting in a scorching summer match or chasing elk in sub-zero alpine conditions.
Modernized Grain Geometry for Flawless Metering
Older extruded stick powders are notoriously frustrating to throw through standard mechanical powder measures. Hodgdon addressed this by shortening the individual kernel lengths. The shortened stick design allows the granules to flow smoothly through your powder measure without shearing, guaranteeing highly precise, charge-to-charge weight uniformity without requiring tedious individual trickling for every single round.
Ideal Cartridges and Ballistic Applications
Hodgdon H4350 smokeless powder features an incredibly versatile burn rate that excels in wide-capacity cases and medium-to-large bore rifle applications.
The Ultimate Creedmoor Propellant
If you reload for the 6.5 Creedmoor or 6mm Creedmoor, H4350 is universally considered the mandatory starting point. It offers an optimal case-fill ratio that consistently produces sub-MOA precision when paired with heavy match bullets, such as Hornady ELD Match projectiles.
Versatility Across Classic and Magnum Calibers
Beyond the Creedmoor family, H4350 is a top-tier performer across a massive variety of popular hunting and target cartridges. It delivers optimal pressures and maximum velocities in:
-
243 Winchester & 6mm Remington
-
270 Winchester & 25-06 Remington
-
30-06 Springfield (specifically with heavier 165 to 200-grain bullets)
-

Achieve Match-Winning Precision
When competing at 1,000 yards or taking a once-in-a-lifetime shot at a trophy animal, you cannot afford to worry about your ammunition. Loading with H4350 ensures uniform ignition, exceptionally clean burning characteristics, and the confidence that your handloads will perform flawlessly under pressure.
