Product Specification
4895 is a versatile rifle powder with origins in the 30-06 cartridge as a military powder. This is a historic powder for Hodgdon as it was the first powder sold by our founder, Bruce “B.E.” Hodgdon to the reloading public.
As a member of the Extreme line of extruded powder, this powder is a good solution for 30-06, 17 Remington, 250-3000 Savage, 308 Winchester and 458 Winchester, to name just a few. It is amazingly accurate in every cartridge where it is listed in our data.
Available in 1 lb. and 8 lb. containers.

Hodgdon H4895 In Stock
Hodgdon H4895 is a medium-burning extruded powder and is part of Hodgdon’s Extreme line of powders. It is very similar to Varget in burn rate but has never been as popular for use in full power loads. Where it does shine is reduced power loads and it’s the most popular powder in that role.
The Hodgdon advertises that any published load for H4895 can be reduced down to 60% and still have consistent ignition. Hodgdon considers this load data for “Youth Hunting, Informal Target, and Plinking” and publishes a short PDF on its use found here.
H4895 is also used as an alternative for people who struggle to find accurate loads with Varget, as they deliver very similar velocity numbers.
Conclusion
This is a good list of powders that focus on reloading the most common cartridges available to the US shooting public.
I really do recommend trying the newer and more advanced powders available instead of the older legacy powders if you are starting from scratch.
If you are reloading in bulk quantities, spherical powders are much easier to deal with in the reloading process.
