As my other post talked about, H-110 and the RNFP worked great. I decided to try some AA#9 and see how that worked. I loaded in the same manner and used 13.5 grains. The manual has a max load at 13.7...
When I pulled the trigger it was a REALLY stout kick. I had only loaded up 6 rounds and fired all of them. No sign of high pressure but the recoil was so rough that it moved my scope back 1/4 of an inch. I wasn't expecting that and think I will go back to using 13 grains or maybe 13.2........ I will see. I was just surprised by the amount of recoil using AA#9 near the max load.

I have been using the 359640 HP from Mihec with around 13.5 to 14 gr of wc820. Shoots very well in my Marlin and my Ruger BH.
Have not tried H110 yet. Yet.

I like 13 gr behind my 359-160 fn lbt with a cci 500(standard) primer. This boolit doesnt seat as deep as say a 358156 in the top groove and can use more powder because of that.

You can see how i have got it to shoot in my 686 in the last post of his thread:
