I never did find a load for 200 grain bullets I liked. I settled on 225s and loaded both Nosler BTs and PTs but mostly used the BT. It was quite accurate in my rechambered 14" barrel and with one grain less AA2520 than SSK's max recommendation I was getting 2300 fps. I'd think your rifle barrel could add another 100 fps or perhaps a tad more to that.
