Can I use the same load data for 165g gameking as I do for 168g matchking?

I'm trying to find the load data I need but can't find it anywhere. I'm using Accurate 2495 in my .308 loads. I've had good success with the 168g Matchking but can't find the load data for the same powder for 165g Gameking. Can anyone help me out?

 

Edit: I've got emails in to both Accurate and Sierra and have yet to hear from either.

As long as the new bullets are physically longer, I can't imagine why not. If they were shorter or longer that would change case pressure but otherwise I'd say your fine. Just start at minimum and check for pressure signs

Seat the *base* of the bullet to the same depth as the other one and it should do just fine with the same data.
