Getting back on the beaten path here, I DID say I was going to buy some Lil Gun this weekend, well instead I did purchase the Ramshot powder (which was probably a mistake). I only have 2 molds (as of now) the Lee 440 and the PB NOE 503-354 (335 HP). I appreciate everyone's suggestions, advice, "2 cents" etc.. I read somewhere that Enforcer was identical to Accurate 4100?

I haven't heard FOR SURE that they are identical (Enforcer, AA4100)
but it seems likely.

I did try AA4100 with heavy boolits in the 500S&W using loads from John Ross and liked the results.

Thank you JonB. Also Ordered the complete reloading guide for 460 and 500 magnum and see what it says.
