......I'm loading a 145 grain Speer Soft Point Boat Tail and I can't find any data for it in my books.

Powders I have on hand that I think will work:

IMR4831
H335
IMR4350
H4350
H4831SC
Varget

Anyone have any idea where to start with any or all of these powders and this bullet?

I like 39 grains of 4064 powder.

my speer manual# 11 shows 44 to 48 grains of IMR 4350 with this bullet.
MRP & 760 are shown to reach over 2900 fps from a 24" barrel

Thanks guys.

I'm going to have to get my chrono working now so I'll know how fast they're going.

I think I'm going to start with the IMR4350 loads.
