Well at least to respond so you don't feel no one cares!
I think 185 would be good, R-17 seems to like over 168 and I am playing with 168s as well.
I like the powder a lot and have got some good results with it.
I am not pushing it as I am just target shooting at 100 yards. I have played with some loads up in max for the 300 meter range and the hoped for 1000 yard range some day.
