300 PRC load data

Help me out folks. I get .6 with factory Hornady 300 PRC 212 gr ELD-X. I now have plenty of fire formed brass. Need to buy the dies (suggestion?) , powder and primers. Any load data with the Berger 210 hunting VLD's would be appreciated. Hornady runs out at 2884 FPS average.

recently done load development with h1000 and N570 With Berger 215

n570 won out
both were very accurate at 100 yards
n570 was about 75 FPS faster but better accuracy at extended ranges. I done shot groups at 500 yards and it was pretty clear it like N570. Groups size at 500 yards on 3 occasions avg around 2 inch.
Now with that could I have played with the h1000 and got it to shoot a little better. I'm sure but jezz I didn't need to.
I ended up with 2.5 To 3 inch groups at 700 yards fairly consistent. N570 shot so well and my ES was so good I didn't even shoot the Rl 26.

if you call Berger they will give you the load data but be warned myself and other have noted that there load were hot. I'd start well below and work up.

any way my load was 25-30 th off lands
with a speed of around 2925fps. This was dependent on which lot of Berger bullets I used. SD low single digits.
