Default .405 Winchester loads

Current load data for .405 Winchester seems tough to locate. I wanna load the 300gr Barnes bullets. I don't have a Barnes reloading manual, so I'm not sure if they list any loads. Any help would be appreciated.

bigbulls,

Thanks, that is a good resource. Though I see theloads listedare all low pressure loads compatable with the older lever actions. I'm shooting an Encore which would be capable of handling higher pressure loads.

Does anyone have any other information on .405 loads?

Thanks, JR
