If you can't find it here for the Garand...
http://masterpostemple.bravepages.com/M1load.htm
...you're probably way OB in the load-combo boonies.
as for truly no-reference starting loads, the only way I know to comfortably find an entry point is
several "near" loads with like weight/shape/OAL bullets, and then gaming them w/ QuickLoad to find
best fit/narrow down the uncertainty.
The Garand, with its fairly circumscribed pressure/burn-rate limitations, is not one where you want to stray
too far from the published centroids.
