I just purchased a mold for my 223. It is 72gr w/gas check, but I can find no starting loads for it. Can anyone help me? Thanks

IIRC, Andrew375 reported very good results from that in a 9" twist Savage using 10 grains of Blue Dot. Hadn't seen any mention of it on here for a while.

Using a published starting load for a 55-60gr BOOLIT, back off
10-15% and work up from there.
