    cheers
    Not N140 if you're shooting light bullets in one and heavies in the other, N550 looks to be the best compromise and will allow you to do both

    I'm 1.4gr shy of Viht's top load with N160 for 120 gr using Norma brass and 120 gr NBTs but you need to work up to this, gives 2860 fps in my rifle and doesn't make a mess of the deer at that speed; much slower and obturation is not good on frosty winter mornings on the does.
    Thanks for looking
