The a/c needs to have room for 4 - 5 pax and likely 100 - 200 lbs bags at least with no more than 4000' T/O STD conditions. Thanks for the thoughts.
P.S. Links to company sites I might not have thought of will help also.

We just purchased a new King Air C90GT. It does an honest 270 ktas at FL280, burning 440 lbs/hr. That's not a LOT faster, but it meets the other criteria...
