Looking for 6.5x68 data

My research has found it using 4831, but I'm looking for slower powder data.
I have a 27" long barrel with an 8" twist and am looking for data with 140gr hunting bullets. I'd like to use AA8700, IMR 7828, H860, IMR 5010, RL25 or RL 33. The 6.5x68 shows 86grs of water capacity vs 81grs in the 264 Win Mag. Can I just use 264 WM data plus 6% ??
 
Is this an existing rifle using this chamber?
- bolt face = 0.512"+
- What is the leade and throat?

Or is this a barrel ready to be chambered to a specific action?
- What are the specs of the reamer you're using?
 
I had a Shilen barrel put on a VZ24 Mauser action. I specified 140gr bullets, but didn't give a throat spec. I can text the 'smith and see if he can send throat specs.
