Hi, I'm looking for starting load data specifically for 700 grain cast bullets.. And muzzle velocities

This.
For the big HPs 640-650gr use 36.7gr BLC2 up to 39.4gr for about 850-950fps
for the 700gr boolit try 36.2gr H335 for about 850fps or 36.2gr BLC2 for around 900fps
For higher velocities you will need to go to WC680 or WC 820 both of which are surplus powders. I don't have any recommendations on charge weight for these, just load to 100% case capacity without compressing it when seated.
Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H.L. Mencken
The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.― H.L. Mencken
