30-30 and 190 grain bullets?

I have some Hawk 190 grain FPs for my wife's 30-30 but am having a tough time finding any data for them. I have on hand IMR 3031, H4895, RL15, BL-C2, and IMR 4320. Locally powder availability is sketchy so I need to find some loads with one of these. I haven't been able to come up with much of any data for either the 30-30 or the 303 Savage for 190 grain bullets. I did find a load with H335 and one with IMR 4064, neither of which I have on hand. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

"...I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprize, and independance to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks."

Thank you. My 7th edition of COW only lists a factory load for the 303 with 190s.
