Powder Amount Help

Thanks still trying to learn how to navigate this site... looking over all the threads on that link I see a ton of variations on weights and powders. I’m mainly looking to see if anyone has had specific experience with the loads I’m working with. Is this even the correct thread to post in?
 
If you're looking for exact loads, you can ask. That being said, doesn't post #7 of the thread linked list a good load for 190gr SMK and IMR-4350?
 
I went to that page in the reloading depot subforum and used the find tool (control + F) and typed in "190", flicked through several and there are a decent amount of loads in there with IMR 4350. And what I noticed is that they were evenly spread between 64-70 grains, and that was just on page 1. That mirrors pretty much exactly the data on the hodgdon reloading site. http://www.hodgdonreloading.com/data/rifle

What that tells me is that you need to work your own load up and not hope to luck into one.
