Anybody out there have any data for the .425WR? I've been converting some .375RUM cases to that caliber and all of a sudden, I relaize I can't find any data in any of the books I have, Cartridges of the World, Ackley's and A-Square. HELP!

Up to 82grns of VARGET for 2355fps with no indication of excessive pressure yet.
Will stick with 81grns for an average of 2330fps with Fed 215 Mag primers, Hornerber cases and Woodleigh bullets.
