The above posts to your thread show how many combinations can be used in one cartridge. Will any of them work in your rifle? Maybe, but most likely not.

Bob Hienline said it best in his book The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, TANSTAAFL, there ain't no such thing as a free lunch! In other words there's no shortcuts in reloading an accurate shell for your rifle. It takes time, components and quite a bit of shooting. Also a quality rifle, good sights or a scope, good shooting form, a good solid rest, and at least 100 yds to a good target.

If you don't already have a manual, get one, read up on how to do a load work-up. Or post here, somebody will give you some guidelines.
