I have at least twenty loading manuals from the very early days clear up to one I purchased a year or so ago.

The first is titled “H4895 Reduced RifleLoads.” H4895 has proven to be a versatile powder that performs superbly at lower powder charges. Loads in this listing are reduced from full power but still offer mid-range performance.If the goal is minimum recoil, the answer is Hodgdon Trail Boss powder. The second tab under the website DATA menu is titled “Trail Boss ReducedLoads.” Trail Boss can be applied to any cartridge you may want to reload. Trail Boss reloads are very mild and easy to shoot. Designed for Cowboy Action Shooting, Trail Boss has proven to be a great way to get more practice with your big bore hunting rifle.


I'm not interested in reduced loads. Since the case is so small and the rifle is going to be at least eight pounds it can't generate much recoil even with full throttle loads. If reduced loads give the best accuracy and still get 1,050 to 1,075 feet per second they're in. Getting more practice with my big bore hunting rifle sounds really good. I figure anyone, at my level, can never get too much practice.


EPIC....

Good luck on shooting the ladders. Please keep us updated!
