I am looking for load for a 17 REM and 30 gr Berger bullets?

Anyone have a load with this combo?

Appreciate any help?

Win 760 worked extremely well for me.

I shoot the berger 30gr bt, which have been dropped, my rifle likes 25.6gr of Winchester 760, I have a 1 in 9 twist barrel 24 inches long. This load is not the maximum, but it is very consistant, I use the CCI BR4 primers. Larry

23 grains of 135 with a BR4 primer
21.8 grains of Benchmark BR4 primer
The 135 load gives about 3900 fps and the Benchmark will give 3800 ish. The Benchmark load is slightly better on accuracy at 200 yards.
Devestating load for foxes.
