  I have the Hornady manual but won't be home until Sunday night late. I'll post some then, if you have any powders in mind let me know.

  From Hornady manual:
  
  Varget 22.4 min - 26.7 max(3600fps)
  WW748 23.2min - 27.3 max(3600)
  AA2520 23.0min-27.0max(3500)
  IMR4320 23.4min-26.5max(3500)
  The other powders are a tad fast. Here's some others.
  TAC 21.0-25.1(3500)
  RL-15 21.3-26.5(3600)
  N-140 22.1-24.7(3400)
  
  Use at own risk. Not responsible for misprints. I've settled on RL-15 and 40gr V-max or 39gr Blitz. Both Federal and CCI primers shoot the best.
