Black Hills Sierra Match King in a Savage 300WSM

I've never heard of Black Hills ammo until I stumbled across it at MidwayUSA.

I have a Savage Model 12FVSS chambered in 300WSM. It's completely stock, and it shoots Federal Premium 180 gr Accubond ammo the most accurately. It's always under 1" at 100 yards. The price of that ammo keeps climbing, and no one stocks it locally. I'm looking for another load that will shoot as well or better. A local range is holding monthly 300 yard matches.

I know that I need to reload to get the best performance, but for now, I can't do that.

Has anyone shot the Black Hills Sierra Match King in a Savage rifle? Trial and error will get mighty expensive, so I'm trying to avoid that.

Thanks for any help.
