458 Lott, CFE 223 and Barnes 450 TSX

I have seen a little discussion with the 458 Win Mag and this combination. Any loading data for the Lott?

I am asking because I need to practice for a Sept buff hunt. For the hunt I plan to use the 420 CEB with VV N530. However, for practice I have about 400 of the 450 grain TSX bullets that I got for about $0.25 each. Barnes lists data for this combination with BL-C(2), and BL-C(2) is very similar to CFE 223. So why not use a powder I have in stock, and avoid a little copper fouling? As a plus, CFE 223 is cheaper than VV N530.

So, do any of you folks have any numbers?

No numbers but:

all are approximate same burn range. Lot's of data out there for that list, so Start low and work up as normal.
