Does anybody have load data with the Barnes 165 LRX in a 300 Win Mag? I know it's not optimum, but the fastest powder I have available is H1000 or N565

Thanks in advance
 
Barnes Load Manual #4 has data for 300 Win with H1000 and 165 gr bullets.

What results did you achieve with the Barnes?
This was some quick load development for a buddy. Ended up at 78gr H1000 w/ Barnes brass and Fed215 primer. Didn't even bother with MV due to his setup. Shot 2" group at 300 yards and patterned well with his factory Barnes load. That is all he was after
 
I loaded them at SAAMI specs for this gentleman. He was in a bind due to the ammo shortage and I was able to scrounge up some bullets so he'd have more than 10 rounds for his pack in elk hunt
