I have RL15, H4831, RL19, IMR7828ssc, power pro 2000mr, IMR4350. Which should I use with a 168NBT. This is a new animal for me. Kind of not shore which way to go. Will be used for PA whitetail. I also have some 168 Berger Hybrid. Help me guys!
 
I just bought the Berger, Barnes, and Nosler manuals:

Berger: 168

Re15, 53-56gr
IMR4350, 56.5-60.6gr
VVN550, 57.5-61.1gr
H4350, 59-62.3gr
Ramshot Hunter, 60-63.4gr

Barnes: 168

H4895, 46-51.5gr
Varget, 48.5-53.5gr
Big Game, 55-60gr
Re15, 48.5-53.5gr
IMR4350, 57-62gr
Re19, 60-65.5gr
IMR4831, 58-63.5gr
Re22, 61-66gr

Nosler: 168

Varget, 53.5-57.5gr
Re15, 53-57gr
Big Game, 57-61gr
H414, 59.5-63.5gr (best velocity)
IMR4831, 63-67gr
VVN160, 63-67gr
VVN550, 57.5-61.5gr
H4350, 60.5-64.5gr
IMR4350, 60-64gr
 
Nos manual says these 3 powders produced best velocities, in order:

VVN160, IMR4831, H414 slower to fastest
 
I've been loading 2 300SAUMs for many years now. Only 168 bullet was the TSX though. In one rifle I loaded IMR4350 and in the other, H4895.
