Dropping the bullet weight certainly helps, it's a heck of a difference. I had a #1 in 450-400NE I played with for a few yrs, ran cast in it with AA5744, 320gr instead of 400gr bullets, far nicer to shoot, still at 2100fps. There were 300gr jacketed bullets around for it as well, and 210gr pistol bullets. It was fun, learned a few things doing it. I can say, that with the rounds I put thru a gun I wouldn't have bought if I wasn't reloading, I saved enough versus the factory ammo for it, to pay for all the reloading gear I've ever bought. I do wonder if there are aa5744 loads for the 416, didn't need wads with it.
