Win 748 for Hornady 40 Gn VMax Data?

AMEN! I have terrific loads for 50 and 55Gn pills...working on getting for the 40 Gn now...

I'd recently tried 8208 XBR which produced great results too...but I dunno if it's cos' I started with 748, but I just love it: but it meters well and heck, I've got a three shot group w/50Gn. VMax that measured .0650"!

Is 748 a good choice for heavier .224 bullets [69gr, 75 gr]? 223 REM

I'd have to leave that up to the more experienced reloaders and folks that have a faster twist rate barrel than I do. I have a 1:14 twist and 55GN seems to be the max I can stabilize at that twist rate. In any case, I've never shot factory or reloaded for anything heavier that 55GN. Sorry I can't be of help on this one...
