Anybody have a good light load for the 30/30. I will be taking the nephew out in the deer woods next year and he is a little recoil shy. I was thinking something good out to 50yds but still ethical. I could just load down but thought some of you guys might have a good pet load. Thanks!

Got this from the Hodgdon web site. 125 gr Sierra Hp/Fn, 27.2 gr H4895, 2094 FPS. I have used this load at the range and it's pretty accurate out of my H&R. Have not used it on deer so i don't know how it would do on them. The review for the bullet says it's very good. Try Hodgdon's web site for their other reduced loads.
