[QUOTE="cape cove, post: 1887454, member: 95503"] In this cartridge you need to stick to good controlled expansion bullets like the Nosler Part, Barnes or the like. I use the 200 gr Nosler Part in mine. With this bullet (200grs) you should expect around 3200 ft/sec and somewhere north of 3400 ft/sec with the 180 gr class of bullet from a 26" barrel. Never used the powders you posted. I use H-870 in mine, but Norma 217, Alliant RL-33, H50 BMG, Retumbo and powders in this burn range will do a good job. My advice on primers is use the Federal 215 as I have had trouble with several other primers due, I believe, to the size of the case. I have always only used Weatherby cases and have gotten good case life with a properly adjusted sizing die. JME I have also read that many users have had good success with the 215 Berger and H-1000.
