2209....lots of it
if I was into American powders RL22 would probably give slightly more but in reality my 2209 load is plenty and definitely on the warm side but brass life so far seems good.

Around 57/57.5 gns of 2209 will give you low to mid 2800's fps with a 180 in a 22"tube. However i have had some rifles where that load is a bit warm and have to drop back to 56.5. Its a pretty std 06 load. No secret recipe.
