Reduced Recoil Loads

[racerx36]

Has anyone tried the reduced recoil loads from Hodgdons website? I'm interested in a deer load for my 11 year old son that won't recoil much. Hodgdon recommends a 60% charge of H4895. For my 7mm-08, that should be about 21.4 grains of powder under a 120 grain bullet. Also, I'd be interested in other suggestions. Thanks.

Sounds like a nice mild load for your son. The 120 gr BT is an awesome bullet and is an excellent choice.
