Trap 100---Win 452 (IIRC)Hs-5---473 Win Hs 6--540..Hs 7 Win 571..HP-38--- Win 231 and of course H414--Win 760.. Only reason the older loading data did not match was the conditions of testing etc. As stated the powders are made by different manufacturers... IMR and Hodgdon matching numbers. Alliant is kinda hurting in the rifle line any more..shotgun too..but Hercules was a spin off from Dupont..anti trust stuff way back when. They do have a neat powder for the 410 now though. I got a 100 lb keg of old surplus 4831 waaaayyyy back in the 60s..Still have about 5 1/2 lbs..Great powder then and still is today. Great in the 25-06 and in the 270
