You might also take a look at Hodgdon's web site. Their data is little more conservative than what Steve posted (47 grains max vs. Steve's 48.5 grains max), but here is is anyway:

I believe that 48.5 grains is the OCW, by my calculations of that powder and bullet weight... Work up to the charge carefully, but I think you'll find the 48.5 grain charge safe, and supremely accurate.

Try 47.0 grains of Varget. It's close to max, so work up. I found this putsim in one hole.
