So I've got some Barnes 120TTSX and would like some Quickload info to choose a powder.

Would like to limit loads to 65000 psi.

Your help is greatly appreciated.
 
Welcome aboard. I trust this will help. If you need something more specific, feel free to ask. These are limited to 64000 psi, which is kissing the 65000 max chamber pressure you set.

Bullet : .264, 120, Barnes 'TTSX'BT S 26430
Useable Case Capaci: 61.828 grain H2O = 4.014 cm³

It looks as if there are several powders that will work for you.
 
You are assuredly welcome. Trust you find a powder that will work with the TTSX. That is a fine bullet that has accounted for quite a few head of game. Fine cartridge, by the way. When you get a load, give us a review of how things are working for you. Of course, as you begin to harvest game, let us share your hunt.
 
Without a doubt! Very cool cartridge and it looks like a screamer with the 120 TTSX. Please post some pictures when you can. Looks like RL22 and 7828 should do some great stuff..
