Hello everyone,
Does anyone here have information on where I might find published data for Winchester 748 and 70 to 75 grain bullets in the 6ppc? I've searched high and low with no luck. I find data for Varget, which is similar burn rate so I feel certain it should work well. Please let me know of any you have seen or used.
Thanks,
Rick
Hornady #11 edition and the Lyman 50th edition both have it. Hornady for the 75s and Lyman for all weights
Probably NO help, but in the 6.5 Grendel of mine, I use 29 grains of W 748 for bullet weights from 100 to 142 grains.

In the Grendel case I can't get enough W 748 into the case to cause over pressure issues.

Located this on a quick internet search:

https://forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/6-ppc-w-748.4121288/

Three posts on the subject. They mention the charge as 27.5 to 29 grains of W 748 also.

I worked up the 29 grains on my Grendel ( Ruger American Predator ) on my own.

Small rifle primers used... case in the Grendel isn't that particular at all.

Thank you guys. I know it was someplace I had forgotten to look. I have the Lyman 50 and will look there also.
Thanks for the help,
Rick
