IT AINT what ya shoot--its how ya shoot it. NONE of us are as smart as ALL of us!
I think that might have been in the American Rifleman
I don't know for certain. But the cover of the book on which the white charge sheet is lying looks like a powder company reloading manual--soft back pamphlet type. If the white sheet is extracted from it, then that's what you'd be looking for.
My pet cast boolit load for my 1903 is a H&G #20 169gr SP (Squibb) with 12gr Unique - just as listed here. I’d love that reference too if anyone figures out the source.

I can only find reduced pistol powder loads here. http://www.gmdr.com/lever/lowveldata.htm
The book looks like an older hornaday manual. The sheet taped to the page I have not seen before.
I'm guessing this would have been in either Handloader, or Shooting Times. In the late eighties, I read an article about 10.0gr of Unique being a universal charge for medium and large cartridges. This looks like something they would do. Maybe a Nexus search could find it.

+1 for jimkim thoughts. The resolution of the image is not adequate for detailed inspection, but it is usable as is.
The brown column near the center is a tap and drill chart.
The white area the left is fractions to decimals of an inch.
The reloading list is cut out and taped on. The yellowing of the tape indicates it is probably over 30 years old.
The image does not show up on any of the common sites.
Link to leave feedback for me.

American Rifleman from the 1980's I'm guessing. NRA did the page in the NRA Cast Bullet Supplement years back also.
Thanks guys. I knew someone had the answer. Y'all never cease to amaze.

Looks like Hornady , Hornady Handbook of Cartridge Reloading , Rifle-Pistol Vol. II. (1973)
This is their second edition ... the edition #1 had no handgun data , just rifle data .
The page you are looking at is page 53 , where the rifle loading data starts , it reads
Rifle
Reloading
Data
printed on the red sheet .
I can't see what is on the white sheet ...glaucoma has left out the details ... can someone enlarge it ?
Hard to ID something when you can't pick up the details ...getting old is sucking more every day .

While I can't normally condone bootleg copies, to the best of my knowledge you can't purchase a copy of the book. So, the PDF is available here.
