With a first year production triple four my stand load was 42.5 grains of imr 4198 behind 265 grain hornady.
This bites a bit. I like peep sites but I see you have a scope. If shooting prone with this load make sure you have enough eye relief.
If you have lots of black powder and wheel weights kicking around consider 60 grains volume of ffg behind Lyman 427098 cast bullet. Basically turning your gun into old 40/60 Winchester. Enjoy
