Load recommendation for 1000 yards

At or above 2550fps should keep you at 1250fps at target (1000yds) and should trigger an acoustic target sensor array. N150 has worked well with 200-20X in a friends F-TR gun....won the 2018 LR Nationals with it.;)
 
My barrel length is 24". I have exactly the same rifle that you have. For me 175gr Matchking worked extremely well in accuracy, but my most accurate load was overpressured and I had problems opening the bolt. So I discard it. Did you have better results with 175 Matchking or with 175 Tipped Matchking?
Praire Dog ,

Both the 175gr Match King and 175gr Tipped Match King shoot great , nearly to same point-of-aim at 100 yards , when loading Varget or IMR 4064 .
However the 2 different powders did not shoot to the same point-of-aim , due to slight difference in muzzle velocity .
I have NOT experienced any problems of hard bolt lift .

I used the old 175 AMAX with IMR 4895. I dont have my books out but it was on the 43 to 44.5 range. I was running a 26 inch barrel same twist as you and it shot fine. It was over 2700fps with that load. I didn't shoot any comp with it but I used it a lot to shoot steel at 1000 yards or small rocks when out at some of my shooting spots.
