    Nope, definitely not, please check the manufacturer website before saying things like that. Not to be rude but there is a significant diff between the powders. I have both of them. This is direct from ADI - "ADI AR2206H Smokeless Rifle Powder has a burning rate slightly slower than AR2206 and is between AR2206 and AR2208.

    I know a lot but it seems less every day...

    Due to the exorbitant cost of reloading components, warning shots will not be given.

    and Ive used both with same charge rates in .308 and .223 for ever without issue...BECAUSE I dont load hot...if you in mild end of spectrum a slight change wont push you into eating bolt territory...a wrong or mislabeled powder will.
