The surest would be to institute a sticky thread with two spread sheets updated periodically as the first post.
The second post should be a template showing minimum acceptable data and "nice to have" information. This would help both the posters and the sheetmaster.
Members post their new/favorite loads the way we normally do now.
The OP or agreed-on sheetmaster would have the responsibility for checking the reasonableness of posted loads and whether it should be classed as an "AR-Friendly" or "Bolt-Only" load. Only then would he or she update the master sheet and upload to the first or second post as an edit.

- The first would be for those where the sheetmaster would place AR-Friendly, meaning loads with max pressures less than 50ksi.
- The second would be for Bolt-Guns only with the absolute maximum pressure for a postable load being the 63ksi listed in Ramshot and Accurate Arms load manuals for the 6mm PPC. This would also be the sheet where loads with longer than AR magazine-length COALs would go.
