Old Hornady manuals show 42 grains of IMR-4350 as maximum for the 220 grainer and 45 grains for the 180 grainer.  Speer does show 46 grains as maximum for the 180 GS.  QL starts to show that is hitting high pressures near the maximum…

I think you might need a considerably faster powder than the ones you mention to be all burnt as the bullet exits the muzzle.  Those fast enough would not likely be in your favor…

Good-luck…BCB
