Need a starter recipe for nosler accubond long range 150 grain, rl22 powder and winchester lrm primers
 
You already ran this thread. People don't mind helping but you really need to get some load manuals and as to Nosler they have all their data online.

Nosler load data.

I can't tell you anything you won't find in a manual or on Nosler's website. If you have questions on any of that load data just ask. I saw in your other thread you have WLRM primers which are fine for RL22 powder and the RL22 is good for the 7mm Rem Mag.

didnt ask for anyone to get a smart attitude. nosler reloading manual doesnt hve rl22 powder recipein it, already checked with the nosler website as well. if youre not gonna be helpful, keepyour comments to yourself
 
i do own a hornady manual but they dont have nosler bullets in them. the lyman book i bought for .270 win/7mm doesnt include the accubond lr bullets in it either
OK, here is what is going to surface. Most reloading manuals will not cover all powders and bullets. Obviously a manual made by a bullet manufacturer will cover their bullets. For example if I look at my Sierra manual I will not see mention of Hornady or Speer bullets. Some manufactures like Nosler for example do have published load data online which can come in handy. However, the problem becomes what you mentioned. They may not cover loads for a powder you have and want to use. Then we can go to the powder guys and look for the bullet we have or a similar bullet in design and weight. For example Nosler while using RL 22 in many loads does not include data for the 150 grain bullet. Alliant does hav data for Reloader 22 in 7mm Remington Magnum but nothing for your 150 grain bullet. When you reach a dead end like this you can do some looking. I found this load data.

Nosler Ballistic Tip 150 grain bullet
Reloder 22
Charge 68.0 grains Maximum Load Reduce by 10% for a start load!
C.O.L. 3.280"

There are also times when a certain powder you may have is not recommended for a given bullet. All of this is part of a learning curve, much of which can't be explained in a few sentences or paragraphs. What would I do? Looking at other similar data around 68 grains seems to be a popular load with maximums being 68 to 70 grains. I would start with 68 - 6.8 = 61.2 grains. I am not telling you to do that, it is how I would go about it and only if I did not have the option of another recommended powder in a published load. Obviously, the best method is to use a suggested powder. I can't stress that enough.
