Most sources say that IMR4831 and Hodgdon 4831 are NOT the same- IMR's version is a little faster. My unscientific observation from using both powders would agree that they are different powders, and one cannot be substituted for the other.
Even in the cases of 2 powders being the same powder, but sold by different companies, like H110/W296 and H414/W760, the lots are not the same. If you switch from one powder to the other, you should work up loads again.
