1Shot gets about 2500 with the 120 gold dots, and 8208xbr, in 18" barrel. He loves his combo on deer.
For under 200 yds, the Nosler 100 BT should do well for you too. I have some 16" data with that one doing 2630, thus at 200 yds it has 2150 ft/s and 1000+ ftlb, fine for medium game.
It has loadings for H322. (I used some H322 in an older 6.8, so only a little experience but there are several who really like it as a powder, so I wouldn't see a problem working up some loads.)
Hodgdon lists a max load of 29.0 grs for H322 and 100 NBT.
I believe a lot of DNS' hog kills are CNS shots, behind the ear etc, but some also thru the body; mostly he goes for behind the ear. A 90 gr is great for that. Me personally, not sure I would try the tnt on deer unless that's all I had. There are several workable bullets more designed for medium game IMO.
