What would I need in the way of powder/primer to match the 4080fps load? I have the sabots/flare and resize dies. Would I need a crimp die? Can I use any 0.224" diameter projectile in the 55 grain weight? Remington's load uses a soft point projectile. Can I use a hollow point without affecting ballistics?
Thanks!

Use the powder and primers listed in Remington accelerator load data. Any 55 gr projectile will work the same, as the bullet isn't bearing on the bore. the sabot is, and 55 gr is 55 gr. And you can slightly improve the ballistic performance if you use a projectile with a higher BC value. I would definitely crimp.
