160grn. Partitions in a 6.8 Western

[270WSMXBolt]

Cheers folks. My head is beginning to hurt a bit. I'm trying to find data for loading Ramshot Grand powder and Nosler 160 Grain Partition bullets. I just need to find a safe start load. I don't care about accuracy or velocity. There's nothing published that I can find. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hodgdon lists 60.5grs starting load and 66.0grs max load with Ramshot Grand and the 165gr ABLR on their data. Same charge weight span also with the 170gr Berger EOL

You'd probably want to be somewhere around 63 grains with the lighter 160gr Partition
