TrapdoorRe: IMR 4350 and its new Packaging
I've been saving the empty metal IMR cans because I had a feeling the packaging would be changing.
I like the IMR cans most for the most efficient shelf space.

ReloaderI like the Plastic bottles better because you can get a scoop out of them w/ Lee Dippers. W/ those dang IMR cans I have to pour a bunch out in a plastic container and then funnel it back into the can when I am through. I usually save my Hogdon bottles and pour my IMR powders into them (after changing the label of course).
Good Luck!

DutchJust curious: any 8 lb IMR kegs? That would be a benefit of the new packaging.... FWIW, Dutch.

B17GDutch,
this was just in the one pound bottles.
I have been stocking up on some IMR 8 pound cannisters myself from Sportsman's Warehouse every time I go up north from here.
cheers

skl1Ditto Reloder's comment. I like the wide mouth of the Hodgdon powders for easier dipping. They do take up more shelf space, though.
I find exactly the opposite with the shotgun powders, though. The incorporated spout on 700X makes it easier (than the Clays powders I use for 20 and 28ga) to funnel into the MEC powder bottle without spilling.
