Good evening -
I've attempted to call Hodgdon several times and have always been put on extended hold until the music times out and hangs up.
I want to make sure I'm reading the reduced recoil load instructions correct with H4895 & the 60% rule. Their data sheet they show on their site doesn't appear to be much of a reduced load for the 7-08 ?
They first state this can only be accomplished where H4895 is recommended for that load. The Sierra Manual shows a max of 42.0 grains with their 100gr Varminter bullet.
Would 25.2 grains be their lowest load recomendation?
Any other recomendations for this round? I'd like to spend some time over the extended weekend with my Son getting some trigger time with his new Remington.
