It seems a lot of people shoot Delta 400 at 200 ASA . 
       The Delta literature (eg. see Ilford's website: 
http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/pdf/400_Delta.pdf) includes recommended 
development for a variety of ASA's from 200-1600 in many film developers and 
dilutions. ASA Values outside that range are given but not recomended.  
    As far as your question on shadow detail, they also have a lot of fine 
tuning information on adjusting development for different desired 
contrast.The contrast information is also given in terms of equivalent paper 
contrast grade so you can have a more gut level feel for what say a 5% 
contrast change etc means.
