    From the alliant site rel 10 it only gives data for up to 50 grain projectile.

    "The complete reloading manual - one calibre/one book" used to be great,
    each bullet manufacturers data with a list of different powders at different loads, followed by each powder manufacturers data for each of the bullets.

    Sadly, Gordon from GRT died earlier this year. Hopefully the community can pick up where he left off, but according to the website, updates are on hold.

    Comparing GRT results to published data gives some interesting results- high loads.

    Alliant don't give any loads above 50grain Nosler BT.

    I shoot 55gn in my Sako 75, no problem... shooting on a reduced power range, 2148 fps and 1498 me. 100 yards. Loads of loads.. if they settle for 50gn bullets they will be fine for 55gn bullets. I have the Lyman reloading book.. actually shows jacketed loads 45gn to 63 gn! I cannot expect the 63gn to shoot well with a 1 in 14 twist. Cast loads 45 and 54 gn. I tend to use Unique, 6.8gns to 8.5gns... Red Dot 5 to 8 gns. Very accurate rifle.

    Give p-max a try. It is an online calculator which can give you a good idea of pressures.
