preferred powder and bullets for 22-250 1:8 twist heavy barrel Savage

I've got a 26" 1-9 Brux and use 39gr H4350 in Lapua brass with Remington 9-1/2 primers. Getting great results pushing 70gr Nosler rdf's @ 3425 fps.
 
I dont have much to add. I like 22 250s with light bullets. 52s to 55gr for a 14 twist and 62s for a 12 twist. With an 8 twist your up there in heavy bullet range.
 
Im getting good results with IMR4451 and 90 SMKs.
Velocity only went up 11 FPS at 70 degrees, and the load was worked up at 35 degrees so it seems to be pretty temp stable so far.
