Another thing to note is the "75% Rule" that NE450#2 (Tony) at the AR forum came up with. He found that you can shoot a slug of 75% weight of the regulation load with the same powder charge and it will shoot to regulation. With my 450's since they were regulated with 480 grain slugs, I dropped back to 350 grain and they work well with reduced recoil. I also tried some 350's with 40 gr of 5744 in both 450's and a 500/450 with very nice results.
