25-06 loading for lightwight (60 grain) bullets?
I have some 60 grain bullets (originally for reloading 25-20 winchester) that I want to try and load for use in my 25-06.
Now I know if I bring the MV up too high they may spin apart, but I'd like to play around with them to see if I can develop some sort of load.
My goal is to attempt to develop either a light small game load, or (if the bullets permit) a flat shooting varmint load.
The only problem is that all the loading data I have (admittedly, I don't have ALL the loading manuals there are, LOL) are lacking in load data for anything less than a a 75 grain projectile.

I did search the PAFOA archives and found nothing...likewise, searching the web brought me no data.
I am sure I can't be the first person to think of shooting a lightweight projectile in this caliber.
Any thoughts, pointers to a web site I may have overlooked, or personal experiences, both good and bad, would be appreciated.
Right now I don't have a good starting point for load development.
Thank you in advance for your willingness to share the benefit of your respective experiences.
Cheers,
Scott
