.28 nosler load data

Here is what I found with my 28N. Re33 fouled very badly, and carbon fouled like no other powder I have ever tried in any cartridge. I couldn't get H1000, Have just a little Retumbo, and that is reserved for my RUM. Everyone says N570 is the bomb, but also unavailable. I tried the new 8133. Found out it is a great powder for the 28N, but I'm shooting deer and have only played with 162's and 175's. I'll bet it will do a good job with the heavier bullets also. What I like about it is it is very clean, and the carbon seems just like any other magnum. Performs very well with good velocities, low ES, seems very accurate. That I can live with, especially since I shoot HBN coated bullets.
 
I've got 168 VLDs loaded for deer this season. But I'm (hopefully) going back to WY for a horseback Elk hunt I'd like to start getting ready for. I've got Retumbo behind my 168s. I want something temp stable. I'm using 4451 on my 6mm Creed. It seems very consistent.

Does anyone have any experience with the 8133 behind the 195 in the 28N?
