load data for 105 Hybrid Berger in 6mmBr

Hi, Can anybody give me any load data for the new 105 gn Hybrid 6mm Berger for the 6mm Br?
I currently use 105gn VLD bergers (Moly) with 31.5 gn Varget seated about 20 thou off the lands.
I heard the Hybrids take a bit of adjusting with the jump?

Also any load data you would have for the 6.5x284 in 140gn Berger Hybrid would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Brent.
 
For non-moly, would start at 29.5 Varget, .015 out and .015 into the rifling (.015 past first jacket-to-lands contact measured with a Hornady tool). Some guys prefer to start at full jam (max into rifling), but I suspect it will work in one of the above positions, give or take .005. Varget lots have varied. I'm quoting 29.5 with a CCI 450 primer. If you have a "loose" barrel you might take more. If you have a very short freebore, I would start at 29.0 even.
