Does anyone have 45-75 smokeless powder load data for a 300 Gr. cast lead bullet?

Thanks,

Scroll down to the load table.  Hobie has loads with 3031 & 4759.

I use 28 grains of Accurate 5744 and a 305 grain cast bullet. It works well. 5744 is probably the best smokeless powder to use in the older black powder cartridges.
