55 gr V-Max loads for 22-250

Question:

I have a Weatherby 22-250 and would like to hear of any 55 gr Hornady v-max loads that are shooting well in someone’s rifle.  I made the mistake of shooting the last good worked up round for this rifle that was a 52 gr hp.  I was planning on pulling the bullet and measuring the powder for the load) I smoked a coyote at 342 yards while doing it but have lost my loading data where I originally worked up the load for this gun.  Any help will be appreciated.  It will at least give me a starting point.  It’s been 8 years since I loaded the last batch for this gun.

A load I found very accurate in my 22-250(a Savage 110) is 36.5 grs. H380. Remington Core lock 55 gr. hollow point with a CCI magnum primer.  The load would shoot  1/2 minute groups at 200 yrds off a bench rest.
