Somewhere around 94.3 grns of Retumbo behind the 190VLD is what I would work up to. That will get you around 3131FPS. Always work up loads.

I'm a big fan of US 869 with heavy bullets in the 300 RUM. This powder works best with the Federal 215M primers.

I was running 98 grains of US869 with the 210 Berger with a 3.95" OAL.

I run 215 bergers at 2950 with 90.2 grains retumbo. Switched from 210 vld and havent looked back!
