Hodgdon's online data is the best source for theirs.

http://data.hodgdon.com/main_menu.asp

Cast and jacketed data can be found at Realguns.

You can get every bullet and powder mfr's data for $7 in a 45-70 Loadbook.

There are links to most online powder and bullet mfrs in the FAQs and Help sticky. ;)

My Handi loves  heavier lever gun H-322 loads with a variety of bullets, including 300, 350, 400 grain jacketed bullets.
