I really wouldn't cut back too much on development as contrast will suffer causing more problems with printing than excess density. Your negatives will be a bit dense but you should be able to print through without much problem. The suggestion to use Microdol or Perceptol is a good one.

Working today with some Tri X pro 400TX and was working with studio lights and a Minolta Flash Meter. Well somedays you just wake up dumb and today was one of them. Yep was working with 2 cameras one set at ASA 100 while the Tri X is 400. Want to guess which ASA the flash meter was set on and the really smart one today forgot to switch when switching cameras. Yep it looks like the Tri X got about a 2 stop over exposure. At least it will dense rather than thin negs. I thinking of cutting the development time down to compensate. Any recommendations on how much to cut it and if the explaination isn't too deep in chemistry Id appreciate it. I plan on using D 76 either straight or 1 to 1.
