    Winchester 748 Good for 6.5 Grendel?

    Trying to get powder for loading my Grendel. I have some Winchester 748 on hand that I use for .308.
    Anyone try it for the Grendel? If so any loading data? Thanks in advance.

      This can work. May depends on the bullet weight you are looking to push& your end goal? Only bullets I tried this with was with 125 gr partitions & 129 gr Hornady S.P. with a fair speed penalty compared to Lever Evolution. In this case I was wanting a lower velocity to test bullet expansion at lower velocities. Hornady list 748 as a option for all bullet weights.

      Then with the heavies nothing compares to LVR.

        38W:

        Run a search here or on the web. When the Grendel first came out, 748 was one of the top 5 'go to' powders.

        There is a few stickies with load data as well.
