I have data from the Lyman, Hornady and Accurate's website as well as plenty of "at-your-own-risk" data from forums. I have been starting with very light charges (as like you said, no real published data for 115 grain bullets, only data I found was on handloads.com, and it used trailboss, couldn't ever get it to cycle the action, never upped the charge enough to over compress, http://www.handloads.com/loaddata/de...=Powder&Source) and slowly working up until it cycled reliably.
I appreciate the suggestions WinterSoldier, and you raise a good point of the cartridge not reaching its full potential, The load with the 115 lead bullets is only for plinking cheaply. I Like Titegroup (relatively cheap and avail. locally), but I also have 8 pounds of Accurate #2 so I'll probably stick with that for now.
I have used the loads for Hornady's XTP bullets over blue dot before, but those cost a little more than lead coated bullets.
