Mega Beast questions

That gun is beautiful. But I do have a few questions.

1- can I trim 577/450 brass and then fire form it with 45 cal bullets
2- is brass 24 gauge shot shells as strong as rifle brass
3- can I use cut down 577 nitro brass
4-if I used jacketed bullets can I use .585
5- is shooting 24 gauge shot shells with shot a no no with such a big muzzel brake.
6- I assume trail boss would be a good powder for light loads

Yikes. Sorry about all the questions. I haven't been so excited about a new gun in a few years. Unfortunately we still have stage 2 fire restrictions going on which prohibit firing guns. Another reason to pray for rain

Thanks. Bob.
