Need help with .250 Savage load work up

I just purchased a Remington Model 7 Custom shop KS mountain rifle chambered in .250 Savage. 1-10 twist. I gathered my components, and I picked up Hornady .257 90gr. CX bullets. I like working with Nosler accuracy loads to start with, but my dilemma is that Nosler shows loads for 85gr and 100gr. Most of the accuracy loads for the 87gr bullet are already compressed loads that I want to use so going to a 90gr bullet has me concerned. With the 5grs of bullet make that much difference when reaching that accuracy load with 101% capacity? Should I follow data for the 100gr or the 85gr. I was thinking the 85gr. because it is closer to the weight of the CX bullet.

Any information would be helpful and appreciated.
 
Here is the 90gr cx data
