Default 338-06?

Does anyone have any ideas for loads for 338-06 with a 180 grain nosler bullet.

The Nosler Manuals list quite a few loads for the 338/06 with the 180.

Looking at the .338", 180-grain bullet specs, I see it has the same sectional density as the 150-grain .308" slug. I would consider it on the light side for bigger game, but just about perfect for deer and antelope loads.
