IMR 4350 VS. H4350 in 30-06

I have not hand loaded much for rifles but I have started latley. For hunting I got by with the factory rounds.

I did buy dies for my 30-06 and a can (really a metal can) of IMR 4350 back around 1980. I used a little and put it away. Here in Colorado with almost zero humidity and in my cool basement I believe it is still ok. Now for my question. Is IMR 4350 interchangeable with H4350? I have found you sure go through a can of powder alot faster for rifle ammo then for handgun. That old can of IMR 4350 is almost empty.

Thanks

The two powders are not the same.

H4350 in 30-06 is a hair slower than IMR4350. BUT you can
