PJ, I guess I got lucky...
First powder I ever tried for my 308 was 3031. The rifle grouped 1 and 1/2 inches (5 shots@100) with a peep sight and the old 165 partition with the relieved waist and the screw machine marks on it. I figured that was plenty good enough for woods ranges and never tried anything else for many years. Didn't have a chronograph in those days. Got some 2520 about 10 years ago, and tried that along with H414. BTW, 2520 is also the best powder I've found for the 8x57. I think of 2520 as 'ball 4895' - it's very useful stuff. For some reason or other, I've never used 748.
