I was looking through my new Barnes reloading manual and noticed a new powder. It's called MagPro. Anyone use it?

My pet load for the 300 Weatherby Mag was always 88.5 grains of RL22 behind a 150 grain Barnes Triple Shock. The manual has this same bullet behind 96 grains of MagPro for 3543 fps. That's fast!!!! About 100fps than what I'm currently shooting.

For MagPro they have:

81.5 grains for 2874fps
91 grains for 3150fps

RL25

max load is 90 grains for 3151fps

Hottest load is 107 grains of US869 for 3180fps

This is for the 180 grains Triple Shock

*these loads are for reference only. Double check the manual before trying any. ;)
