Also Speer 200gr SP with 9 1/2 Win 296 and went around 1050 and group well. It has been a while back, but I post reports with picks of pig to show damage. The boat tail match bullets will likely not stabalize with your twist, so shoot paper before you put your can on.

was going to post basically the same thing, try the speer hotcor line "180~200gr" also. aa#9 should work well as I used this in my old 9" x39 barrel I had, h110 should be good out of your bolt gun too.
