458 WM and 400g bullets

I am looking for some load data for 400 gr bullets in my 458 wm. VV 3rd edition and my Hornady book only show 500g and 350g bullet options.

I tried VVN135, but even with a full case (I think it was 72 grains but the data book is at home and I'm at work right now) the best I could get was 2100 fps.

Would I be better off trying to compress another 3-5 grains of VV N135 in there, or should I try faster powder?

I have some VV N120 on the shelf, or has anyone tried a pistol powder like the #2400? I have a bunch of that left over from my 44 mag that I don't shoot much anymore...
