I don't see Varget in the bolt action data, however.
Also keep in mind that Hornady uses private, bulk powder, not necessarily anything for sale to the public.
I just came back from shooting some 95 gr Bergers, in my 22", I got nowhere near 2950, but it's no worry to me, they're going fast enough and accurate enough for me.
The 90 cx being a mono, shouldn't come near to a cup/core 90, or even 95...
I did get some 90 Eldx's to go 2903 in my 22" bolt action. Using PPV.
Update, in the Hornady #11, 7 powders for bolt action show 2950+, in 24" barrel...

Well aware of the Hornady Load data here. Sorry to say the temp stability of all the Powders listed leaves me uneasy I suppose. We experience temperatures that range from -30 F to a bit over 100 F here. Granted most of my hunting is done in temps that range from 70 F to -5 F I suppose. If I am willing to give up some velocity, the propellants that stand out for me include IMR 4895, Accurate 2495 & perhaps IMR 4166
