I haven't used it but the Winchester White box, 240gr. SP have a good reputation for accuracy and results.  I have used a handload of 240gr. Hornady XTP on top of max load of H 110 for years and it's always done the job.  Have yet to recover a bullet out of any deer taken with it and there has been several, guessing over 25 with the 44 mag.  Good luck!  DP
