Thanks Tim. That answere most of my questions...I had heard some fellas were using 9.3x74R brass to make cartridges that were the length of the chamber to increase accuracy, but 444 Marlin might be just as good.  Thanks again.   Shot the 500 yet?

No, haven't made it to the range yet, tween the flu, bad back and bad weather, MIL problems, wife's surgery, I've been stuck home for the most part, the range is only open on Sunday, not a good day since it's the only range here now that the county range closed, that's the biggest problem. I had 7 guns all packed and ready to head to the range one Sunday last month, but that didn't happen. :-\

I had my wife pick me up a pound of Titegroup in OKC last week.  I am going to use that to find some middle ground for the 500.  I really enjoy the 10 grains of Unique but you better be close or have a range finder and your trajectory down on stock notes.   I save the big loads of H110 for the tough guys in the crowd that "recoil doesn't bother".   I have only had one want to shoot it again....it is pretty funny to watch although I do worry about them dropping my gun.
