Hi elk n550 is about the size of varget and just as dense as n560 I use n550 in my 3006 168 barnes tsx and get 3000fps with no psi signs.
Good Luck

I use N550 in 7mmBR with 162-168gn bullets for 2250fps and with 80grain .223's from a 26" barrel. It's very slow burning. Seems to like stout charges, heavy bullets and long barrels.
