    Hornady 154 SP’s with long bearing surface act like 160’s in my rifle. Max I can go to without pressure signs is 2650 fps. 760 @ 50 gns. Other cases and powders may give more but 760 seems to one of the top powders for this case.

    I would try 2209 as well, you could get a bit more out of it
