              Oh hell,here we go:
              8208xbr up to and under 120gr
              ARComp for 120-123gr
              H4895 for 130gr Berger Hybrids
              Honerable Mention for CFE223 for some 130's and above. (Nothing near max or compressed)

                8208xbr for 123 gr ELD M and 120 gr pro hunters Also CFE does pretty well with the 123 ELD M
                CFE223 for 129 ABLR , not tried with 130 gr VLD yet.
                Benchmark so far with 107 TMK still working on seating depth.

                  So far IMR 8208, IMR 8208, IMR 8208 are the three powders LOL. 120 Speer Gold Dot and 120 Sierra Pro Hunter are the bullets. Once I put together my deer hunting loads three years ago with this combo I did not have the time to do further load testing then the world turned upside down this year and I am not shooting much. Saving my components for more serious considerations.
