The online Hodgdon manual gives a max load of 54.0gr of H4350 with a 200gr Speer SP. Velocity is listed as 2522fps. Note that it is listed as a compressed load if that bothers you at all.

The load in someones else's rifle is not a load for you.

4350 is the right powder. Start at 49 and try 3 each in 0.5 gr increments. Stop if you get any pressure signs.
