Nice indeed. With your free bore, I'd focus on the 105 & 108's. I started out with Varget a hunnert years ago and have stuck with it, but there are others in that burning rate range that others swear by. With that throat you'll probably get past the 30 Gr mark, but I'd probably start at 29.0
 
Here's one for the 95g (Sierra matchking)
26 inch Hawkhill 8tw .273 neck
This is a warm load, so work your way up
31.0-32.0 (31.8-32.0)IMR4166 about .020 off CCI450's @3040fps
At that speed will keep pace (same drift and less drop) with the 105's at 600yds.
