    From a quick google, clay and game advertise this powder and have THIS load data.

    You don't mention what calibre you're loading for.

    Hi,

    I知 reloading for a 30-06 Winchester Xpr, the bullets are .308.

    The loading data you gave is the same as the maxAm has available but it doesn稚 have for my specific bullets.

    My question, taking into consideration the other data is:
    Should it be safe to use the data from the barne Ttsx 168 since for the other powders I have data, when using the scenar 167 they actually need a little bit more powder.?

    All those maxam 30/06 loads are for hunting bullets.
    My advice - and it is only a suggestion - would be to use the 168 barnes starting load with your scenar.
    Use your magazine and chamber to dictate OAL. Chrono a few rounds/check primers/check ease of bolt lift.
