Just got it in got the scope mounted and bore sighted have Blackhorn 209 Powder, Hornady, 240 grain XTP does anyone shoot the load combination? If so, how many grains of powder are you shooting? Also, do you zero the scope before you start working up a load?Thanks for any advice!

I shoot those bullets with 80 grains volume of BH209. Seems to work well for me.
I would say to get to get zeroed in first at 25 yards. Maybe 70 grains. You'll probably find the best load somewhere between 70 and 100 grains.
Every gun is different. Finding that perfect load is half the fun.
Good shooting.
