I think it's very interesting that so many independent handloaders find the same accuracy node at
47.5 grains. I almost never get good results on recommended load data.

It works really well in my 7-08 also. 20 Inch barrel and was able to push the 140's to around 2920 with Lapua brass. Unfortunaltely the node was around 2850. But still way faster than Varget and 4064. 1/2 MOA on the first couple 5 shot groups with an SD of 6.8

This powder is back in stock also!! Good to hear it's working well for everyone!! Keep the load data coming.

I am using it in my personal 308 Win, 224 Valkrie, and some 223 hunting ammo. It's doing very well with top velocities.

I will be in Fort Worth around the 24th. I plan on stopping by and grabbing another 10lbs or so.

good to see some newer members chiming in with posts!!

About time I filled my 7-08 brass again. Think I will try the 130 gr. Speer Hotcors.

For AR-10, are you putting mild crimp on loads?

Has anyone worked up any loads with the 223/5.56?

I haven’t loaded 223 yet but it works well in 22-250 with 55 grain pills. Not the same, I know but, seems to be a fast enough powder to work in 223 with the 50-55 grainers.

Yes, I have some good data. I’ll look tomorrow for you, but I think I was running 25.5 grains with a 75 grain Hornady bthp. I’ll confirm it for you.

20 inch Barrel AR style.

I loaded some 62 gr. bullets up with 24.0 grains of 763 in my 22 inch bolt gun. Did not chrony but got a tackdriver of a load. How did you decide on a max load?

Did not decided yet!
I can push more than that actually however due to some lack of time i wasn't able to do more.

Hoping to have some spare time this winter to test more.

In regard to the loads, with the 55gr the best group that I got was with 26gr. With 68gr none of the groups were good, however with 24.5gr there was some improvement (like 2MOA...)

Currently I am trying to find a good load using 80 gr. ELDM in a 22 ARC. Good but not splendid accuracy at 27.5 grains. I have one with 62 gr. Midsouth Black Tips but though I am getting no pressure signs accuracy goes to hell with one more grain over 28.5. Might be spinning them too fast. This data is from a gas gun and I am not confident enough to recommend it. Work up yourself.
