Question New reloader need powder advice

Hey all. This is my first post and I've been reading alot on here for the last couple months regarding reloading. Great site and some knowledgeable folks. I look forward to becoming a contributing member.

I've got my set up complete with a bench and all the gear but now need some advice from the group.

I will be doing my first reloading for my .280 Remington that I got last fall. It is a Rem 700 with a 24" barrel. I'll be shooting either 139gr SST or 140gr Accubond.

I'm trying to get an idea of which two powders would be a good start. I'm looking for that fine line between velocity and accuracy trying to get the most of each with a good balance. So far, I'm leaning towards IMR 4350 or Reloader 19. Those are the ones that are the most favorable in the 4 or 5 reloading manuals that I have.

Thanks ahead of time.
