New Model 71 475 Turnbull on the way. Looking for some load data for 400 - 450 gr cast bullets.

My best guess is for you to call Turnbull.

Most likely will come with the rifle. I know I got load data with my 6.5 from Magna Port.

I would call Turnbull and get their info first.

You might call or write to Dave Scovill of Handloader Magazine. He has extensive experience with this round in a Turnbull Rifle and understands reloading better than just about anyone.

If you call chances are you will get a hold of Roberta his wife. She can forward your questions to him.

I found it is the 348 blown out to 475. JDJ made a similar wildcat based on the 45-70 casing. Load information for that cartridge should be usable.

The .475, .450 Alaskan, and .50 Alaskan are about the ultimate levergun cartridges, from a power and recoil standpoint, all seem to do best in the '71s or repro '86s.
