I have looked around the internet quite a bit and found some good info but it seems there should be more for this cartridge since its been around a while. Any one have some good 110-120 grain load recommendations for this out of a 14 inch contender? Mostly looking for powders to get good velocity for 100 yard and in deer hunting.
 
Never used a bullet that light. Used for Silhouette shooting.

here are the loads that i used in the 80's when i was silhouette shooting. these loads were run across my chronograph and i used a 10 inch contender barrel. as with any other person loads you need to start low and work up using a chronograph.

imr 4895, federal 205 and/or cci small rifle primer, m16 brass.
160gr boat tail, 24.5, 1775 fps
130gr flat base, 24.5, 1797 fps
130gr flat base, 26.0, 2020 fps
120gr, 24.0, 1818 fps

mp5744, same primers and brass
178gr cast lead, gas check, 15.0, 1359 fps

sr4756, same primers and brass
160gr cast gas check, 10.0, 1345 fps

that is all i can find at this time in my old notes. some of my data got damage in 92 during hurricane andrew and is hard to read.
 
I appreciate it it greatly fellas! If anyone has more please feel free to add it....I like having information to paruse
 
I found winchester 748 to work very well with hornady 139 grain specialty pistol bullets , 2200 fps + and sub moa .
