[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 700923, member: 48043"] Kevin is right in his statement of using what works best. That said, 4895 will work rather well in both the 223 and 243. The 223's have to be 69 grain or heavier, and the 243's need to be 87 grain or lighter to work well. Yep, a full case of 4895 will push a 55 in a 223 and 35 grains or so will push a 100 in a 243, but neither are full throttle for the round. Both the 223 and 243 have enough bullet weight difference between their lightweight and heavyweight that 1 powder for each really isn't enough for their entire weight range. [/QUOTE]
