It is a mystery.
OUCH
44gr of N140 was my standard long range load for 155gr SMKs (I'd use 41gr at 100 yards, 3MOA lower but softer on the shoulder). Interestingly the Viht online says that is too much. It was below the what sierra published in the loadall book I had. Don't shoot it any more.
For the 175s that looks way over. Perhaps they are thinking of the 155s?
Be safe
