You should be able to find some data on the powder manufacturer's website. All the powders that I use have a "Data" section that have a good cross section of bullet selections. 0 -
bsdoyle,
Here's an article that lists your bullets in the load data section:

my personal favorite is the hornady 35 gn bullet and 14.0 gns. of win. 680 (aa 1680, now). not for older rifles but my yugo mini mauser like it. 0 -
my ruger 77/22H likes 35 gr hornady and 10.5 of H110. not the hottest, but very accurate 0 -
I shoot a CZ and an old 19H Savage (which, oddly enough, is just as accurate). I am with PJ and BPOST1958. I use a variety of 40 gr. plastic pointed bullets. It is hard to go wrong with Li'l Gun between 12 & 13 grains, easy to meter and to experiment with, mild pressures, and small pistol primers seem to work the best, also according to Speer Reloading Manual #14, "For this manual we used CCI small pistol primers instead of rifle primers. This change allowed higher velocities at safe pressures, and greatly reduced the extreme variation of pressure that limited the number of propellants we showed in previous books. Do not use these loads with small rifle primers as excessive pressure will result..." P. 181
Seems to work for me, too.

My favorate load with a Hornady 40 gr. V-max, or Nosler B-tip is 11.8 grains of H110, and a CCI BR2 primer. One holes out of my 77/22H 0
