Looking for Tikka 243 8 twist pet loads

I have had a hell of a time dialing in my 1:8 Superlite. I am committed to 103 ELD-X for a variety of reasons, but have tried most everything from 100-108. I have also tried a ton of different powders. I finally found a load that repeatedly puts 10-round groups under an inch.

44 grains H4831 (42-46 was tried)
103 ELD-X
Federal Match Primers
.7(ish)/100 yards
3000FPS average (no visible signs of pressure)

This project took a while and the gun was pretty frustrating. I was hoping to find a more available powder that would work, but most of everything just ended in garbage groups.
 
Good to hear. My 108 load is 41.5 grains of H4350. It's a one inch load and moving right along. 1:8" Tikka. Have not had luck with the 103. Will give yours a try. Thank you.
