What's your go to 404 Jeffery load?

I have plenty of loading data in the Woodleigh manual, going to try the Woodleigh 450 grain RNSN loads with 82 grains of AR2209 but I'm keen to hear what everyone else is using in their 404 Jeffery.
 
I settled on 80 gr Accurate 4350 for 400 gr Barnes X and TSX.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.
