use for winchester 748 powder

[Texas by God]

Twenty nine grs of 748 under the Lee C309170F in my 30-30 was pleasant and accurate. Three shots in .20" @40yds accurate. I'll echo others about using it in the .223 also- good stuff.

farmer66, are you perhaps thinking of this thread? https://castboolits.gunloads.com/sho...-760-in-311466

Absolutely a great .223 Remington and .308 Winchester powder.
Count yourself lucky.

Hey Doughty,
Yes, that is what I was referring to. Looks like I was a bit confused on larry's powder. Thanks. I was raised in Bozeman until 1972. Some good football between the two of us.

farmer66, Yeah, the Cats took it this year.

I've been loading the Lee 155 7.62 X 39 bullet in .308 as a good round for offhand practice. I've been using some old H4895 but am down to less than a pound of that. A couple of years ago I too was gifted an 8 pounder of 748. I haven't really done anything with it, but am thinking now that it might make a good replacement powder for practice rounds at 1900 to 2000 fps in the .308.
