So my wife is a newer hunter and i got her a 7mm-08 she really likes. With her being a newer hunter she is a bit recoil sensitive.
She shoots Hornady Custom Lite low Recoil rounds that use a 120gr SST. And the rifle shoots them well
So I am following Form's simple reloading technique to spin her up some rounds.
What I noticed was the manual has COAL as 2.700 the factory rounds are 2.800 COAL.
Do you guys think that this longer round is the way they are getting the "Low Recoil" for these rounds?
I picked a Mid gr charge of 40gr of Varget for her reloads. But didn't notice the longer length with the factory rounds.
I know in the thread Form has he shows that COAL lengths don't really matter that much if any on accuracy. but the recoil part is what I am looking to reduce.
@Formidilosus any ideas by chance?
