Load data for Sierra 180gr round nose 30-06?

Right on Potashminer ,....I use Hodgdons site once in a while but they only show the 180 sierra spbt and not the rn. I know that I can use that data to get started on a 180 rn load, but I am looking for data right out of the Sierra manual for the 180 rn,....more for curiosity sake than anything.

- respond not like you did above, but perhaps by thanking the poster for the reply, but re-iterating what you seek.

That makes more sense to me than just leaving.

Andy,...above is my first reply to "Potashminers" first reply. In my reply I agree with him by saying "Right on". Then I proceed to tell him that I was looking for specific load information from the Sierra manual. In no way did that imply that he did not know what he was talking about or that he was inadequate to answer my question,...but in his second reply he proceeded to tell me, in a sarcastic manner, about how many manuals he has, what they contain, and how much he knows about hand loading, etc. There is no doubt in my mind that "Potashminer" is a well seasoned hand loader and really knows what he is talking about. That is why I ask questions here on this site,...I am looking for sound answers and sound advice from people such as "Potashminer" and others like him,...However,.. I did/do not expect to get sarcastic or ignorant replys. I generally do not post ignorant replies on any "forums", and I should not have responded the way I did, and perhaps I owe "Potashminer" an apology,...I am generally an easy going guy, but I have, and always will, live by the "eye for an eye" rule. Perhaps I misinterpreted "Potashminers" reply, and if so, I apologize.

In response to the part about me leaving,....I did not leave, I am not a coward or a sh!t disturber,...I have to go to work each morning at 3am and I don't get home until 5 or 6pm so I only spend a short amount of time on here before I turn in each night.
 
Okay, guys. Potashminer here. I am thinking that we "gunnutz" should be able to get past this issue. Tobacco Brook, I apologize for the tone of my second reply to you. After discovering that this thread is still active, and after reading all the comments made by others in the past few days, I re-read my second reply, and am thinking that I should have simply stopped after saying that I did not own a Sierra manual and therefore did not have the specific data that you were asking about. I am hoping, however, that you can understand my concern that folks who might be new to our sport and practices, are sometimes mislead by "internet talk" by people claiming expertise that they don't have. I could have simply suggested that if you were new to the reloading game, to send me a PM and I could help you out with published data, and reference material.
What ever you might chose to do, do not stop asking questions.
Peace, brother....
 
This will seem very anti-climatic, but here is a page form a Sierra loading manual:
