As most of the other suitable powders are alliant RL powders which I have had the worst luck finding locally

I have had great luck with Hybrid 100V. My Savage Predator 10 Max 1 likes 41 gr. with the 105HPBT for about 3050fps. With the 87BergerVLD- Hunting, it loves 42.0 Gr of Hybrid 100V for 3200fps. & gives me 1/4 min. groups @ 100yds. The 87 has 1/2 the wind drift of my 22-250 from 300 to 500yds. and stomps it even more past that & beyond, -- the 22-250 is 3765fps. avg. MV. with 52 sierra matchkings & very accurate, but doesn't hold a candle to the .243 for wind drift or energy with the 87's. The .243 still has 650ft. lbs. energy @ 700yds. --plenty to flatten coyote or wolf-- not so sure about deer though.
