[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 1226182, member: 11011"] I've done reduced loads for a few new shooters and I'm doing this with a 7-08 for my girlfriend . for Denise I'm using a 120 gr nosler ballistic tip with a slightly reduced load of H4895 powder . H4895 can be used to greatly reduce the load . hodgdon has info on youth loads that explain the 60% rule . then as he gains experience you can keep loading it up . one other thing I've noticed working with new shooters is the bang is as bad as the recoil . I'd have him wear ear plugs and muffs to keep the noise down . as he gains experience you can change this too .
