Default Who has their Nosler Reloading Guide #5 handy?

I haven't yet bought the Nosler Guide #5 but am interested in the Accubond bullets, in particular the .277 caliber 140 grain Accubond for the .270 Winchester. I am hoping someone can give me Nosler's recommended loads for this bullet. What load was their most accurate load tested? The Accubond bullets look to be the best mix of the Partition and the Ballistic Tip (which I use extensively). Just looking to try some of the latest technology in bullet making. Thanks for your help!

Evening. The Nosler Reloading Guide, 5th Edition lists the following bullets in its section on the .277 (270) caliber:
Solid Base Ballistic Tip, 130,140, 150 grain
Combined Technology (CT) Ballistic Silvertip, 130 grain
Patition Spitzer, 130, 150 grain
Partition Semi Spitzer, 160 grain
CT Partition Gold / Partition Gold Moly-Free, 150 grain

I believe that Nosler's 5th edition was released before the Accubond, hence there's no data in the manual.

After I posted this question, it crossed my mind that the load info might not have made it into the latest Nosler manual. I understand that you can just use load info for other bullets of the same weight and start a few percent under max and work your way up. Thanks for checking your manuals for me guys!
