Hey guys I have some hornady 50gr v max 1 pound of RL-10x and some Remington
7 1/2 small rifle primers what the most accurate load for this powder I normally have excellent results with h335 and imr 4895 but I got a pound of rl 10x for free from my buddy any suggestions

"I have some hornady 50gr v max 1 pound of RL-10x and some Remington 7 1/2 small rifle primers what the most accurate load for this powder"

Well, that may be an open question. Seems the choice of what powder and how much of it works best is determined by the rifle, not the bullet or primer.

Put some RE10x in a bowl and scoop the case full with it and seat a bullet to mag length. One hole groups at 300yds all day long (1 shot).

What Fuzzball was saying is the "best result" is going to be determined by the <span style="font-weight: bold">gun</span> you have. You did not tell us the gun you have. For this to work you would need someone else with your same gun and the same combination of components to have already worked up a load that you could use as a reference to get started.
