I've continued the loading of this cartridge and IMO, it's quite easy caliber to reload. Getting 2460 is easy with several different powders from 24" barrel. However I like to use either Hodgdon "Extreme" powders or VihtaVuori N100 -series powders. H4350 and N150 are quite good. I will reduce my loads to 2375 fps.
One thing that I like about this cartridge is that it puts all loads in same group. Accuracy of my rifle is 1 1/4 MOA. Woodleigh SP and Hornady DGX shoot exactly at the same velocity and they have a same POI @ 100 meters. I really like this kind of rifle. It can be used as a true "one rifle".
