I've had good luck with the 200gr Hornady and H4831 from the Hodgon data they have on their site.

After experimenting I find R19 to be the best.

imr 4350 ....Mostly because I have a lot on hand but I've had good results using 200 gr. Hornady and 250 gr Barnes.

I just ran some 200gr Hornadys over the chronograph, not a screamer load, but very accurate and comfortable to shoot.

65gr of Reloader 19, lit with a 210 Federal primer, for 2423fps. Std. deviation of 13fps, for 10 shots.

This was from a 24" Browning 71.

I'll try some factory loads and maybe a couple of others next time out.
