For those of you who have loaded this combination, does 72 grains of H4895 seem like a good starting load for the 470 Capstick and the 500 grain Barnes TSX bullet?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Dump the H4895 idea. Buy RL-15 or IMR 4320. Start at 88 grains with the 500 TSX. Work up to 92 if your gun likes it. You'll get safe, accurate, deadly loads that won't turn your Capstick into a grenade.
