Well, to answer your question, Varget, or several other medium burning powders will do it for either calibre.
Now my question. Why do you think you have to start out loading for precision?
As long as fifty years ago I used to get challenged from time to time, by some sport shooter who wanted to wager that they could shoot a better group than I could. My first reply was always something like, "What calibres do you reload for?" If the reply was that they don't reload, I would always answer, "How much do you want to bet?" I knew full well that I could beat any sport shooter that didn't reload, because precision shooting comes with practice and you don't normally get practice if you don't reload.
Nine chances out of ten, any enlargement of the groups of a new reloader will be caused by the shooter or the rifle. If it appears to be the rifle, work on it, or have it worked on.
So get bullets and a suitable powder. Work up your load for pressure purposes only, to get a load that will propel the bullet the speed it was designed to be propelled, seat it a distance from the lands that will allow reliable feeding and shoot away.
