Could be, but I see what you're seeing, they do look like little discs of extruded powder, sort of like slices of bologna sliced off a whole bologna. Definitely not a ball powder but I could go either way on whether its extruded or a flake. I'm not sure now.

Hercules and Alliant are the same company, I dont recall what year it was, but it has been quite a few years ago now that Hercules changed its name to Alliant. If you look at the Alliant can you will still find the Hercules head logo. 2400 is my all time favorite .357mag powder, I have been using it for a long long time. So what you have is an old can of Alliant 2400. I didn't notice any difference when they changed the name, so if it was kept dry and still smells like fresh I would use it the same as Alliant 2400. I think they call it flake, but whatever type they call it, I still like it.
