When loading the 500 Jeffery is a filler (foam plug) needed?

I make my own foam fillers using pool noodles and an unsized 585Nyathi case that I sharpened the mouth of.

Cuts is nice and round.

Only loaded from 99 to 109gr so far and used fillers every time.

I shoot monolithic bullets, so they are on the longer side. But so far so good.

@DWB Maybe a short video or photos demonstrating how you make the plugs?

What powder are you using ? I’m going to try H4350 and RL15.
 
Playing around between N540 and N550.

Seems like N550 will be my go to

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?
