Young's Modulus against Hardness

Does anyone know where I can find some sort of chart for Young's Modulus values for varying hardness valves of hardened carbon steel?

Thanks

Young's Modulus is relatively invariant for carbon steels, regardless of hardness - it should be around 207 GPa, or ~ 30 * 10^3 ksi.
 
Taking CoryPad's comment one step further.

As far as I'm aware. For any specific single phase of any metal, the Young's modulus is essentially constant. Things like precipates (within reason) will not effect the Young's modulus, however binary phases may show variation with the ratio of the two phases present.
