I'm wondering if anyone has any recipes they would be willing to share. I want to load some Barnes TTSX 140 grain bullets for my tikka t3 in 7mm-08. I went to Barnes' website and they currently do not have that powder listed.
 
Our 20" Remington loves 45.1 of 4451 Norma brass and cci 200, we have tested 4 different 140 gr bullets with that combo. The Bergers were very slightly better than the ttsx but they were still sub moa. Best groups I could get with 4350 were 1.2" with the ttsx in that gun. And it was with 46 even.

I load 47gr. H4350 with the 140 TSX. That is a case full and I worked up carefully. It shoots 1.75" 3 shot groups at 220 yards. I have taken a bunch of deer with this load and the longest tracking job was 25 yards.
 
Barnes may have data that's not online. You might shoot them an email. They've been very helpful when I've emailed them in the past.
