american rifleman, march 1986, page 50 states 48.5 grains of IMR4895 for a 150 grain bullet for velocity of 2655.

why this large two grain discrepancy - for the same velocity?
burn rate number on hornaday's chart is 66 for IMR 4895 and 68 for H 4895.
are modern books cautious due to potential litigation.
