N 530 Powder choice for 6br or 6bra with 105 class bullets

I used it a few years ago in a 6BR with 105 Scenars after having 1/2 kg or so left over from using it in a 6.5 Grendel. Worked great, good accuracy, speed, safety up to 2850fps or so but in this barrel it shot best a less than that.

Thanks for your response, since components have gotten they they are I'm try to keep an eye out for alternatives for powder choices. Thanks.
 
CAN'T SAY I'VE TRIED N-530 BUT MINE SURE LOVES N-540 WITH 105 BERGERS
I'll go along with that. I would expect N530 to get to max pressure before usable velocity with 105s. IMR 4166 is in the same category - but if you are happy with a lower velocity - mine runs at 2870 -cleaned 500 yesterday with 105 Bergers slightly jammed.
