Reloading the Nosler 180gr Ballistic TIp for a 300 WSM with H4350. Using factory brass from Winchester, fire formed and a CCI 250 magnum large rifle primer. Does anyone have any load data to share? I'm trying to recreate a load for a family member and I am constrained to the details above. Unfortunately, I don't have the gun to do a full powder test. I do have an OAL from the ogive on the gun/bullet and plan to seat the bullet closer to the lands. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Of course you will need the gun to load safely. I have loaded to around 62.5 g of H4350 but every rifle bullet combo will be different

ETA - I now see there is no H4350 listed.
61-61.5gr of H4350 has done me good in the past with 180gr bullets out of a 300 WSM. That was my original intent but thought I'd check with the group. All the proprietary manuals I have/load data online show this range as perfectly safe with 180gr bullets paired with H4350. I understand working a load up with the gun itself is ideal for safety but unfortunately, I won't have this option. I've considered sending out rounds in different nodes to conduct a powder test. In the end, the goal is to recreate a round as accurate or more accurate than the original factory round. Appreciate the help.
In addition to Speer Manual above, Speer also has nice on line load data that seems to have good powder selection. Not 180BT but good data to work off.
I've used the Speer manuals and the Sierra. They both have big selections of powders. Hope this helps.
