What components do you use (no need to give charge weights)? Do you use published data for your handloads?

Started with published and experimented from there. Sierra has a 85 grain SP that I’ve been shooting for years with great success. Small rifle primers and Winchester 296 or H110. 17.5 grains of H110 behind the 85 Sierra gives me about 1900 fps from the 7 1/2 inch Ruger and just over 2200 fps from the carbine. My preferred primer is the CCI 450 magnum small rifle primer. Hope that helps.
