    Just playing with QL.
    i had used barnes before hand, then changed to nosler lr 129gr i had that load from 58.5-62.5gr in .2gr increments trim length 2.490 coal 3.184. i found nodes in the 59.5 and 61.5gr range. i then changed back to the barnes LRX
    i (foolishly) did not check the barnes sight for new data. when i first built the rifle 6 years ago there from my recollection no load data (could be wrong) i have never successfully had the time to find a load to suit the rifle so it spend plenty of time hiding in the corner. if i did everything over and could advise anyone regardless of your powder recommendation check the requirement of the projectile maker.
