The 105 will give you trouble, but the 95 will not (based on a Rem 700 and T3 that both stabilized the 95 just fine) Powders : 2209, Re22, 2213sc, IMR4451, IMR 4320, 2206h all work (in my rifle). 2206h will really get the 87gn VLD zipping along, put it in the boiler room not the shoulder. (95 in the shoulder is fine) Other powders work too, just those are what I have and they work well.
