[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 710724, member: 8"] In 1972 when I was just back from RVN I decided to cobble together a subsonic load for a 7mm Wby to use to shoot turkeys. I had a Lyman manual which gave reduced loads but decided to reduce it lower than their lowest recommended load. I locked up the bolt twice and had to use a hammer to get it to lift. As others have said reduced loads are dangerous for a couple of reasons of which one is detonation and the other is double charging. [/QUOTE]
