Loading data for double rifle
Do any of you gentleman have loading data for a double rifle chambered for 500-450 3/4 NE. I checked my A-Square Manuel, P. van der Walt's Dangerous Game Cartridges Book and Cartridges of the World and have not found any data for this caliber.

Graeme’s book as mentioned.

I have some for H4350 and RE15. Can look it up in the weekend.

Here is the information from the Graeme Wright’s book. H&H guns were supposedly shot and regulated for the 370 and 480 grain bullets.

Mine regulates best with 87.5 gr. RL15 behind backer rod and 480 gr. Woodleigh softs.

Here is data from Graeme Wright's book; don't now who Graham is.
Ignore the red markings; that is for me.
Note 1 says to use foam or Dacron filler.
