I like the H4895 "reduced loads" in some instances but I am not reducing them anywhere near the lower threshold of 60% of book max charge. I like them more for the flexibility to dip a bit lower than the starting charges for book loads with other powders of that burn rate. For instance, H4895 has been great to push a 185TTSX at 2700FPS in my 22" .338WinMag. It was also nice for bridging the gap between my daughter's 2500fps 7mm-08 120gr H4198 youth load and a 3000fps full-power load. I could pretty much slide the scale wherever I wanted on that load with H4895, from 2600 all the way to 3k. Having said all that, most of my H4895 usage these days is near full-power levels. It's just nice to have the option to back off a a fair bit if the need arises.
