Aismall,
For any powder made by Hodgdon, this is a good resource:
Hodgdon Reloading Center
In the case were you are using a bullet weight not listed, like the 210 Berger, the method I use is to look at the minimum loads listed for bullets above and below that weight.
In this case, for a 300 win mag and H-1000, Hodgdon calls 72 grains the minimum load for a 200 gr bullet. Hodgdon calls 73 grains as minimum for a 220 gr bullet.
Even though the bullet shapes and lengths are different, I would use 73 grains as H-1000 as my start, and work up carefully from there.
Another resource is Berger. Calling or e-mailing them will yeild you load data for their bullets as well.
