Anyone use this powder for anything other than either 223 or straight-walled magnums like 444 or 458 etc?

Was this propellant designed with the 223 in mind?

thanks

I found it the powder of choice in 39 different loadings. From 17 Mach IV to .444 Marlin.

In addition I found it useful in around 587 other loadings...

I have used in my .243 with 70 grain ballistic tips. Burns pretty dirty though.

Works well in the 7.62x39.

While H 335 is a classic powder for the 223 Remington, it has lots of uses. It burns similarly to H 4895 but offers the convenience of a ball powder.

I have had success with it in the 7 BR cartridge in XP-100 Remington pistols and in the 30-30 Winchester in rifles.

Great all around rifle powder. I use it from .223 through 444 Marlin. Use with confidence.

YES!! I have found that it develops max. velocities in the 7.62X39mm with both 150-grain spitzers and 180-grain round nose bullets. Accuracy is excellent, and preessures SEEM acceptable in both the SKS and the CZ 527 carbine.

I recently used H-335 to load the most accurate 200 JRN and 158 gr. JSP .35 Remington loads ever in my scoped 336 Marlin. I could not believe the groups I was getting from an old lever gun.

Hi
H-335 is outstanding stuff.. I found it to be THE powder for best performance and accuracy in 30/30 Win, 308 Win, and 358 Win. No other powder that I have tried, and I've tried quite a few, can give me the results that H-335 does.

H-335 (WC 844 in milspec) seems best adapted to smaller case capacities. I use it in .222, .223, and .222 Magnum. I have used it in .308 Winchester, but it seems not to have as favorable velocity/pressure ratio in this slightly larger case as the similar BL-C2/WW 748 (milspec WC 846). It also seems to reach maximum pressures before optimum velocity with light bullets (55-70 gr) in the .243.

Don't have any experience with loading the 7.62x39, but I would think, as others have pointed out, that it would do well with the heavier bullets. Also probably a passable powder in the .30-30. It is substaintially too slow for something as small as the Hornet.
