Nosler and Sierra are the only current manuals I am aware of. They don't have the latest powders like RL 23 and Staball 6.5 though. I have had very good accuracy and velocity with both of those powders with Beger 200 gr hybrid targets. With a 26 inch barrel 2800 fps is easily achievable with no pressure. At 2850 primers start to flatten and accuracy falls off. Your mileage may vary.

Do you have a reloading manual?
150grn, 165grn
As I look for this information, none of it has a date and I think with new powders/primers/bullets things could change. Thanks for your support.
What bullet type/brand, i.e., Berger 155 VLD, Hornady 165 CX, etc. What powder do you currently have, and the intended purpose (target vs. hunting - what game and range). The more pertinent information you can provide, the better the yield.

Well, I'm not exactly sure what the current load data is since I still use older data which still works, but when I was shooting competitively using a M1 to approximate the Lake City Match ammo in our handloads (used for shooting in civilian matches) we used 45.5 gr of IMR 4320 and Sierra 168 gr Match King Hollow Points. This is a mild loading but was, and still is very accurate today. I still use this as one of my loads for my 30-06 with Sierra 168, Nosler 165gr partitions and 168 gr Match. The 165/168 gr Noslers can be shot without a change in zero in most but not all rifles. In the M1 we could get 0.8 MOA out to 600 to 800 yards and in either a Remington 700 or Winchester Model 70 dependent upon the rifle used Sub MOA out to 1000. While this load worked well out to 1000 using bolt guns heavier bullets up to 190 gr were better when things got windy.
