Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 63250 psi, or 436 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 112 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !
23 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.

Not QL but FWIW here is what I use:
Both the 250 Accub and the Berger 250 Elite Hunter shoot great (under .5moa) at 400yds with:
Nosler or Rem brass, Fed 215M and 89.0gr of RE26. Velocity is 2,980 ft/sec (give or take) in a 26" Broughton 5C bbl.
