Description
Winchester 748 is a BALL POWDER® smokeless propellant and a proven choice for loading .223 Remington cartridges. Built for the reloading bench, it delivers Winchester’s focused approach to rifle propellants: factory-performance potential for handloaders using appropriate published load data.
A key characteristic of Winchester 748 is its low flame temperature. Compared with other powders of similar speed, this low flame temperature is designed to extend barrel life, making it a practical option for reloaders who value sustained rifle performance.
Beyond .223 Remington, Winchester 748 is ideal for a wide variety of centerfire rifle loads. Supported applications include .222 Remington, .30-30 Winchester, .30 Winchester, and cartridges up to .458 Winchester Magnum, giving reloaders a broad rifle-loading option within the Winchester propellant lineup.
Made in the USA, Winchester 748 is available in 1 lb. and 8 lb. containers to suit different loading volumes. Always consult appropriate published load data and follow all product-label directions when handling and loading smokeless propellant.

Win 748
The Winchester 748 powder is one of the easiest powders to use for reloading. It meters easily in my powder measure as opposed to the tubular shaped or 'stick' powders. The pressure index is also much lower (CUP) yet velocity is not compromised. This means longer barrel life. It is a versatile powder, usable in many different calibers, even the .458 Winchester.

A GOOD VARMINT POWDER IN MY 22-250 AKLY. THE ONLY ONE COMPLAINT IS THE TEMP SENSITIVITY. ON A HOT DAY IT STATRS SHOOTING HIGH. KEEP IT AT A CONSTANT TEMP.

Great powder for lighter bullets in a .308. Also I use it for several loads in 7mm08. Measures consistantly through my powder measure when I am doing high volume loads.
