6.5 Staball load data for 300 Savage

I have plenty of this powder and want to load some ammo for my Grandfather's 99 savage. I can't find load data anywhere. Any of yo have a clue if any exists
 
The reason that they are not showing data for that cartridge is because that powder has too slow of a burning rate for it. There are many powders that are more suitable for the 300 Savage.

I've had the best results with mine using Varget pushing 150 grain soft points.Not a whole lot of data out there for the 300,but there are several powders other than Varget that should do just fine.Mine is a Rem. 722 with a 24 inch barrel.They take a pretty fast powder.Benchmark or IMR-8208XBR would probably in the ideal burn rate range,but I don't know of any data for those powders.Most data for it is older.
 
…Not a whole lot of data out there for the 300…

No Staball data, but other modern powders are listed below.
