Hodgdon's online site is posting Ramshot Magnum and Grand powders, which produce high velocities with 115 gr bullets. Has anyone tried these?

I tried a few loads of Grand . 43.5 grains was as high as I went, and it only produced 2700 fps. Probably going to take 45-46 grians to get any speed. Case will be full. Can get a few more grains of magnum in, but I didnt shoot it. I like magnum better than Grand, but i think they are too slow of burn rate. RL 26 and 16 work good if you have any. I have had good results with superformance for speed and good accuracy, especially in short barrels. I think Ramshot Big game or Hunter would be better burn rate. Vit 560 and 160 will also produce good velocity.
46grs of Grand in my 22 Creedmoor push an 85.5 berger to 3400 FPS with a Magnum primer 26" bbl
