I use a 155grain Hornady Amax bullet with 42.3 grains of N140 in mine with good results.

Do you have any load data with TR140?

I don't sorry all though other people on here have said it has similar burning rate to N140 I don't know if that is so. You could try 41grains for instance and work up. You need to check the powder makers data. If you can not get published data for the powder then don't use it. I would not use a powder if I could not get load data for it no matter how much it cost. Sorry may be some other board member can help.

Nobody has suggested cast boolits - good for 2400fps and cheap to reload
