Yes it has!

But, IMR 4227 is the same, just a label difference! According to the Company!

I have nevrer seen the IMR version - is the granular size the same as the H4227, or, as is common, with IMR powders, are the granules longer?RG

Sorry to hijack but this would be a good time to clear this up for me.


I was told all H powders are the same as IMR powders like IMR4895 and H4895. Since Hodgden bought IMR.


Is this true?


Again sorry to step on your post but I really don't believe this stuff until I hear it on this forum.

Should be self-explanatory as all the ADI equivalents are right there.

I have wondered the same Stevo, so I emailed Hodgdon and asked about that fact on the powders. Will advise what and when they respond. Bill K

Correct, Hodgdon no longer imports the ADI AR2205 (H-4227).
All of the IMR branded extruded powders are manufactured in Canada, by General Dynamics, while the Winchester branded, and Hodgdon branded spherical powders are manufactured by St Marks Powder (a general Dynamics Company), in St. Marks FL. RG

The IMR side of Hodgdon has current (Jan '17) MSDS sheets, so the info should be good. Hodgdon brand MSDS are still 2005 vintage, and they no longer list H4227 on the recently updated website.

Other than that its a little cornfusing........
