I'm new to reloading and as such beginning to gather things together. I'm thinking of develvoping loads for my 243/ 100 gr. SBT, 270/ 130gr. SBT and 30-06/ 150gr. SBT using either RE-19 or H4350. Any help or advice will deeply appreciated.

It is best to use a powder that pretty much fills up the case. I believe the powders you listed, 4350 and RL 19, are both going to do that in the 243 case. They should both be quite good for your application. RL 19 and 4350 are also both quite good in the 270, and the 30/'06 as well. These two are so close together, one is not significantly better than the other.
