I've tried on combo so far that is promising.
Kimber Montana with 22" barrel

185 SP, 47.5 grains of TAC, 210
2,700 fps
Needs more testing to confirm but accuracy was promising and ES were low for this and all charge weights above and below this.
Shot this load again in 34 degrees.
Velocity 2,665 Standard deviation of 9 fps. About a 2" group of nine shots but I'm sure I wasn't shooting it well. Has anyone tried this with 8208?
I shot the 185CX with 8208 in lake city brass at 47.0 (~2710 fps) and 47.3 (2732 fps) through an Savage MSR 18" barrel

185 fusion with 8208:
46.5 - 2674
47.0 - 2682
47.5 - 2704

This rifle really likes the factory 210 partition loads and shoots these sub moa at 2510 fps.

I recently picked up an MSR 10 as well. What is the load that it likes with 210 partions?

It was the factory Federal load. I haven't tried to replicate it with the partitions.
