reloder 19 , and imr 4831 have been best for me. fine cartridge. i got the best velocity out of the rl 19 and best accuracy out of the 4831. this is in my 700 remington.

I also shoot the same rifle. Love It! I would highly consider getting the trigger worked on it. Factory ruger triggers are pretty slappy and long. I had mine done down to 2 Lbs! Yes, I know that is not much but thats just me.
I shoot IMR 4350 in mine with nosler Ballistic tips in 200 grain. I have shot elk, deer and bear with that load and have had nothing but success!
You will love that Rifle. I have mine to where I can bench rest three under a quarter at 100 yards.
