What I've done is do a ratio between bullet weights and load data. I.E. 130g bullets using IMR 4350 my speer manual shows a range of 59.0 to 63.0, my Nosler manual shows 140g bullets using a range of 61.0g to 65.0g of IMR 4350. So start your loads at the low end. You can do the same with other powders.
You also might find the load data on the Hornady web site. I switched from accubonds to 162g Hornady and love the accuracy.
Hope this helps,
Bill
