Buy a can of Trailboss and go to the Hodgdon reloading data center online.

i don't have a load for you, but would go with what JLA suggests as he is always money...

just curious what application you need a reduced load for, trying not to damage fur?

i really like the .243 because the kick is very mild imo, its the deer caliber of choice for me...

Either Hodgdon powders will be excellent.

Just go to Hodgdon and follow their directions..

H4895 is good for ANY reduced loads.. Follow the directions for good reduced loads for any caliber...from Hodgdon.
