I got your back, Jack!
This has been posted several times before; but since the Search function that John D. paid a lot to have included in vBulletin gets so little use, here's a new scan of Winchester's 'White Box'
Target 115gr FMJ ammunition. Note the teeny-tiny ballistics table on the back.
I would also like to point out that powder composition changes, sometimes from year to year. A reloading table/book from years ago will not necessarily reflect real world values today. The Greens have had a detrimental effect on what can be used in smokeless powder today (or yesterday) as compared to loads worked up in years past and posted/written in reloading manuals & magazines. Always use the minimum load listed for any particular bullet and work your way up.
