I am looking for some good cast loads for the 450 Marlin from a 350gr thru a 550gr with RL-7 or H-322

If you can't find loads specifically for .450 Marlin then try .45-70 loads.. The .450 Marlin is essentially a belted .45-70, and has the a belt so hotter loads won't fit in an older weaker .45-70.

.45-70 loads in a .450 Marlin are completely safe , and especially cast boolit loads.

I doubt you will find much, if any, published data for Cast Boolits in .450 Marlin, and if you do they probably will look a lot like .45-70 loads for the same boolits.
