25.0 gr of Win 748 with a 55gr fmj bullet is my standard load for 748 powder, out of my M&P15 with a 1:9 twist. accurate out to 100 yards. I don't shoot further. Great plinking round. I also use Hodgdon H335 powder.

I am using 26.3 grains of 748 behind a 55 gr SP but I don't see 3150 fps on the chrono only about 2900 fps. I have to load 27.5 grains to get 3150 fps.
