I am going to neck up some .308 brass and load these 160 TTSX in this little Ruger Hawkeye. MY SIL made up some loads with H4895 and both the Barnes 185TSX and the 200 AccuBond. I want to try this Power Pro 2000MR ( I got 2750 with 49.5 gr, 165 AF in a .308) Does QL have Power pro 2000MR and if so, what can I expect from this 22" barrel? Thanks.
 
The Powder Pro series has not been included in QL to date. I would imagine it should give a pretty good load, however. Back to the old way of doing things.
 
Looking at Aliant's data, they show 52gr/2000 MR/Speer 200 (which I like and have plenty) I called and spoke with Ty at Barnes and he suggested starting there and I may even be able to go up to 56gr, if pressures oblige. I necked up some Lapua .308 cases for them. My SIL used H4895 behind the 185TTSX, but I just gotta try this new voodoo powder!
