    N560 would be a good starting point as would N165. I've been using N165 with good success in a 280AI for years. Other powders (N560) may bring slightly higher velocities but I'm getting 2900 fps with the 162 AMAX/eldm. There is no need to chase every last fps with this projectile if you go that way.
