looking for .307 win load data for hornady 160 gr FTX

The FTX (I believe) will not work in a Winchester Model 94, the COAL prevent proper feeding out of the tubular magazine.
 
LVR was most my accurate powder with those out of the 307, but found the 140 monoflex's were even better! Start with the hornady book value and work up, you will find the accurate load near the top.

Maybe I should look into these if that is the case.
I seem to recall that the whole reason for the 308 Marlin was because the 307 was too long when loaded with the new bullets.
