Default Load data needed

Does anyone have load data for the .30-06 using Berger 175 gr VLD bullets.
If so can they please lend to me via PM? I'm particularly interested in using IMR4064, IMR4350 or IMR4895 but I have no problem using another powder. Especially is someone has had accurate results with it.

If your rifle likes them they are not particular, load them .030" off the lands, I would suggest either IMR 4895, or H4350 or H4895 and a federal 210 GMM primer.

RR - do you have a starting and max charge for these powders?
I'm not worried about the rifle handling it. It is a Tikka T3 in excellent condition.

start at a mid level book load, go up 1/2 to 1 gr at a time until you hit high pressure, then back off 1-1.5 gr. that's the max load for your rifle. sure you could go by the book and be totally safe but you would miss out on where your rifle performs best. all that data is just a guideline, its the results they got in their rifle on that day under those conditions.
