Thanks for the responses, but I'm thinking of a new strategy. I have a Win. m70 featherweght in .30-06. Throught the years I've also collected four stocks. I'm now thinking of cutting down one of the stocks and loading some light recoil loads. Barnes, Hornady, Sierra, Nosler, Speer, have 125 to 130 gr. bullets I'm thinking of using. Hodgdon has reduced recoil loads using H4895.

What do you think of this strategy? Does anyone have pet reduced recoil loads? How do you think the 130 grain bullets would do on light plains game (Impala, Grants Gazelle)? I'm leaning toward the Barnes.



Sounds like a good solution as dad now has an excuse to get himself a new gun. Mother will understand that you simply can not shoot your own loads in a gun sighted and stocked for the kids.
