45-70 / 456-220-1R

I have a mold for this boolit on its way to me to try in my 1895, am looking for advice on load data. Any y'all have old manuals that list a load for the collar button or similar loads? The member I'm getting this mold from used 13gr unique with the 220 boolit with decent results, so I'll start there, but I am looking for any others.
I am aware the boolit is reverse tapered to help start it in a revolver cylinder.
Good Morning!

I think I have some old loading manual info for the collar button bullets. I will try to remember to post it when I get home and dig it up.

I sent you a message with some load data for collar button bullets that I combined from some older reloading manuals a few years back.

Got it and thanks!
Anyone else?
