I was wondering if you could run a quick load for the following for me:

243Win - 24" Barrel
IMR4064 Powder
Rem Case
Fed 210M Primer
Sierra 75HP
2.630COL

Thank You in advance.
 
I note that Sierra lists 39.4 grains as a maximum load. Bear in mind that these are pressure tested loads. Velocity was 3300 fps in a 22 in barrel. Nevertheless, this is the QL projection.

Cartridge : .243 Win.
Bullet : .243, 75, Sierra HP 1510
Useable Case Capaci: 52.253 grain H2O = 3.393 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 2.710 inch = 68.83 mm
Barrel Length : 24.0 inch = 609.6 mm
Powder : IMR 4064

Predicted data by increasing and decreasing the given charge,
incremented in steps of 2.0% of nominal charge.
