Both guns do beast/best running wide open, so as a handloader my DE was a bit of a disappointment, because you just use the max load of H110/296 and be done with it. For the .50 that's 32.5 grains under a 325 JHP.
From a historical perspective, H110 was specifically created for the 30M1 carbine round used in WWII. Basically, (and NOT actually, but pretty damn close!) you fill up a 30M1 case with H110 and smush the bullet down on top of it.
I have had better results and performance using Lil-Gun for my 30 Carbine loads pushing a 110gr projectile. Extremely accurate out to 50 yards (furthest I shot it)
An m1 carbine can be accurate?
