[QUOTE="osprey176, post: 1994346, member: 30899"] I recently played with reduced velocity ammo in my .338 Wm,starting with Trail Boss and 200 grain Hornady flat point. The combination is comparable to the 30/06 and 150s for velocities,with full power loads,but I couldn’t get much past 16-1700 FPS with Trail Boss. I went with H 4895 and had no problems reaching my target velocity (2100),and the recoil is still much lower than full power loads.I’m a big fan of the 125 Ballistic Tips in my 30/30 and 30 Herrett,and see good expansion at the lower velocities. Another factor to consider with a youngster is stock fit. A properly fitting stock with a soft pad helps a bunch. [/QUOTE]
