Are Gateron Blacks lighter or heavier than 65g MX Blacks?

Hey,
question is in the title.
What is the actuation force of Gateron Blacks compared to the common spring weights 62g, 65g, 67g ?

roughly 50-55g activation. Somewhere around 70-75g bottom out iirc. They're considerably lighter than MX blacks, but noticeably heavier than MX reds.

I am aware of how Gateron Blacks compare to standard MX Blacks, but I'd like to know, how they compare to custom spring modded blacks.
As far as I recall, 62g,65g,67g is the bottom out force, so that would make them lighter than standard Gateron Blacks, if these bottom out at 70-75g?
