A killer lower recoil load would be IMR 4064(start at 47 gr and work up to 49 gr) and some hornady 130SSTs. Guaranteed to shoot and kill
Buck, Before I posted my question I was looking at some vintage loading manuals, it's surprising how often 4064 is mentioned in the same sentence with the word accurate. Think I am going to pursue this 4064 recipe to start. The kid is doing pretty well offhand (the only thing that matters where we hunt), not flinching, but it's easier to prevent flinching than to correct it once it starts.

Thanks to all for your help.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
