You can use .30-30 data. My Lyman 45th edition, circa 1970, has it listed in the obsolete section. I use 31 gr. of 3031 with a 150 grain bullet, works well for me. Max is 33 gr..
Instead of me typing it all out-pick a powder:
3031
4895
4064
4320
4350
H380
Then pick a bullet:
110 jacketed
150 "
170 "

I'll give you what data I have. hth

No, I must not have been clear. You will need .30 Remington dies. .30-30 dies won't work. The load data (powder carge with the same bullet weight) from the 30-30 will work with the .30 Rem.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Good luck finding brass...
