Have any trail boss powder?  It makes for wonderful reduced loads.  It has a quick burn rate and could push a 250gr cast bullet into the 1000 FPS range.  325gr cast bullets into the 800-850 FPS range.

Hodgdon Titegroup 240 gr XTP Mag. go to the Hodgdon website for load data.  This is a great load.  I use it because It has similar velocity as my heavier 335gr WFN hardcast load.  This way I do not have to re-sight between loads.  They both are within an inch of each other.
