No, Winchester 760 is not the same as AR2209 - it requires its own data that you can find here:

The various powder 'equivalence' charts floating about should have huge warnings attached to them that they do not imply any form of commonality or substitution between powders. The only thing the chart provides is an approximation of relative burning rate, but this is very subjective.
