I use rem 7 1/2's in all my SR primer cases. 26.3 gr of h335 (same thinkg as 748) and a 55 gr bullet has been my standard 223 load for long time. If that load doesn't shoot I usually get rid of the rifle, not necessarily because I like the load that much, but i'm not about to change the load I use for a dozen 223's just cause 1 rifle won't shoot it
Wow!
What book did you use for your data? Hornady shows 23.2 gr MAX. Nosler shows 25.0 gr. MAX, Speer shows with 450 primer 26.0 gr. MAX, and my Sierra bok shows 25.9 gr. MAX. I personally will not give out any reloading info to anyone if it will exceed the Manual for the type of projectile or even case brand. I know some guys load hot for some loads, and I have never gotten within a half grain of Max by any manual without showing excessive pressure signs....JOHN
