I'm considering these and I have Target, TAC, 3031, IMR 4895 and Norma's 204. Not limited to those, just what's on hand. Load will be for SE whitetail, pigs, black bear, in that order or opportunity.
Years ago I loaded some of the first Barnes 180 gr. X bullets to 2798 fps with 53 grs. of H-335. Out of 7 groups the best was 1.66" with all 7 average 2.75". Never found a load that shot well. I lost interest after that but, I'm sure the TTSX will perform better especially with TAC.
