Default heavies in a 22-250?

I want to start reloading my own 22-250 ammo. I've found bullets up to 75gr. However you rarely see factory ammo above 55gr. Is there a reason for this other than too little demand to load heavier bullets? I don't have any reloading manuals so I can't see if recipes exist. Also, disregarding initial costs will it really same me that much money? I know for shotguns it only saves if you are a VERY high volume shooter.

I know 75gr bullets will sacrifice the flat trajectory that the 22-250 is loved for but me and the wind have a sour relationship and pelts aren't worth it around here.
