I used the old Barnes X 120 grain with R22 as it developed the highest velocity with accuracy in my rifle. But if starting over I would try R16 & R23 for their stability and clean burning advantages. If I wanted to get exotic I would also try the VV powders: 165, 170 and N565 & N570.

I had good loads with the 120s and H4831 and H4350 but went with the slightly higher velocity of R22. But I would not do this now. I would pick any of the extreme or newer powders and go with that.

"When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred." Niccolo Machiavelli
