Anyone reloading Barnes 85 Gr TSX bullets in .243 win

I load the tsx in a 243 using 45 grains of RL19. It is in a stevens model 200. Bullets touch at 100 and it has proven itself on deer. 3 shots in 3 years all went about 18 inches, straight down! I think speed is around 3250 or so. It shoots so good and it is my daughters rifle that speed doesn't matter as much. Hope this helps.
