In these times I'm still hoping someone has a load with one of the powders I already have.

In mine, the 235 Speer with 68 grs of IMR 4064, Fed 215 primer, is good for 4 in less than an inch and 3 in 0.5-0.75”. It gives 2550;fps and an extreme spread of 46 fps. Think 35 Whelen.
The 225 Sierra wasn’t quite as accurate.

You might try 40 grains of SR4759 behind Sierra 200 gr. flatnose.
It all depends on finding this powder.

For my old Belgium Browning Safari 375 I use 16.0 grains of Red Dot with 265 cast GC bullet and Mag primer. No recoil about 1200 or so FPS.

I also use 42.5 grs of AA5744 with 270 gr Hornady RN and mag primer. Very accurate, under an inch at 100 yards. 2000 - 2100 FPS.
