If you choose to not get any different powders the RL-15 at 25.0 to 25.5 with most any 55-60 grain bullet will likely shoot fine. 25.0 with the Sierra 69 or Hornady 68 HPBT's shoot very well out of several of mine. If you do choose to get a different powder H335 would get the nod in my opinion. It does have a big muzzle flash though. Accuracy is usually excellent with that powder in spite of the fireworks.
