I just got mine and haven't had time to work up loads but my intentions are that IMR3031 should be the powder for me. I will be loading the 300 gr bullet with a max of 55.0 grs although the early Lyman books say 57.0 grs as max. I'm sure you have looked at the Hogdon site for data.

Might also want to check over at http://www.handloads.com/loaddata/default.asp for data from users.
Hope this is useful.
