IMR7828 Under a 130gr Accubond in a Win Mod 70 Supergrade 26" bbl. GL
130s at 3k….I'd use H4831, VV N165, Reloader 23.
If you want 3200 ish then I've had great results with IMR 7828 and H1000

I am using H1000, Retumbo & H50BMG, in that order. I run 129g ABLR, 142g ABLR, 150g ABLR & 140g Accubond.
Another useful, but hard to find, powder is RE25 in 264WM.
You have far more choice than I do, but when Win 780 Supreme was announced it was being discontinued, I grabbed all the 4kg jugs I could and have a lifetime supply, it is perfect in the 264WM with either the 130g Accubond or 140g Accubond.
Cheers.

H1000 should push a 130 @ 3200+ from a 26".
What about V-V N560,565,570

I have Retumbo, 4064, so I am trying to use stuff I have or things I can get that is currently being made so I can get a larger quantity for long term
It's not hard getting a 130 in 264wm over 3k. It's been my favorite cartridge to reload for over 40 years. I mainly shot 140's and 85's.
Available powders unlike imr4831 I've used for decades that's gone with the wind leaves
N560/565 (maybe 555)
H4831
H1k
Retumbo
Magnum
HD might work
Don't discount magpro

130 @ 3k should be EASY with the 264WM, even with short barrels. H1000 is I what I would use.
I have used everything in the lists above; here is my list
N570/N560/N565
H4831
H4831-SC
IMR4831
H1000
Retumbo
RL-22
StaBall HD
N570/N560/N565

I presently use IMR7828 with the Sierra 140 SBT, speed is 3190avg w/26" bbl. I also tried H1000
and that avg is 3150 with slightly less accuracy both excellent choices in my gun (pre64 M70).
130 at 3k should be easy especially with todays powder choices good luck and go up slowly
