The problem with small charges of fast powder in big cases is it is very easy to throw a double charge, especially when you are in the middle of a reloading task and go to fill up the coffee cup!

There is no way I would use that 34 grain load in my 338 Win Mag.

You also need to think about S.E.E with that light load. Under the right conditions it could occur.
