Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters 350 Remington Mag and H4895

Greetings,

I'm looking for information on reduced recoil loads for a 350 RM using H4895. The rounds would be used mainly for barrel break-in and sighting in the scope. I understand reduced recoil loads can be made with H4895 by applying the 60% rule. The examples I've seen show reduced loads with standard cartridges and relatively light bullets.

I would be loading Speer 180 GR Flat Points with reformed, once-fired 338 WM cases. Has anyone used H4895 for this application in the 350 RM? Is it safe to apply the 60% rule in a magnum cartridge?

Thanks in advance for your help
