Hp-38 and w231 are as well. But those are the only 4 I am aware of.H110 and w296 are the only two powders that i know of that even the manufacturer of them (they're not produced by hodgdon or Winchester) says they're the same powder, just in a different bottle. Only differences being lot differences.
If there's no data for hs6 and cast, it's likely because it's not going to work well with the cast lead. There's often a reason if it's universally not listed. But knowing what cartridge you're after, maybe others could offer more help.

I vaguely remember there was another Winchester powder, but I wasn't certain.Hp-38 and w231 are as well. But those are the only 4 I am aware of.
What I am trying to do is stated in my post. I want to be able to substitute a different powder and use that data. Hope I made myself clear. ThanksWhat is the cartridge? I'm guessing 40 again? What manuals or sources are you using for your loading data? Hodgdon has that load data for hs-6 in the 40. I have some other manuals I could look in.
No, you are not going to find a powder that exactly matches hs-6. there are only a very few powders that are made by the same companies under different names and you can interchange the load data.
Your questions have been kinda vague, we need more info to be able to understand what your trying to do to answer the question properly.
You're not going to be able to substitute another powder's data for hs6. Hell, even though I KNOW h110 and w296 are literally the same, I don't go back and forth between the two like they are. I like my fingers and other appendages right where they are, thank you very muchWhat I am trying to do is stated in my post. I want to be able to substitute a different powder and use that data. Hope I made myself clear. Thanks

in a previous poste here,https://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=612279 the OP sated thisalanwk: I believe many of us are confused as to what you're trying to accomplish. As I infer it, you have HS-6 and a 180g cast bullet (what caliber? 10mm?, 44 Mag/Spl?), but you don't have load data for that combination. Is that correct?
I am looking for some load data. I have Missouri Bullets 40S&W 180gr bullets that are coated in HiTec. I have HS-6 powder. I have seen some videos where they say with this coating you need to lower the load by 10%. Thanks
There are only 2 exceptions that I am aware of hp-38 / w231, and h110 / w296. Those are the same powders, just made by 2 different companies.
You are correct. the cal is 40SWalanwk: I believe many of us are confused as to what you're trying to accomplish. As I infer it, you have HS-6 and a 180g cast bullet (what caliber? 10mm?, 44 Mag/Spl?), but you don't have load data for that combination. Is that correct?
FWIW HS-6 is my least favorite of those because it seems to smoke more and never seems to burn as clean as the others .
