Im considering creating a light load for my 300wsm strictly for paper punching to extend my barrel life.  From what I understand according to this http://www.imrpowder.com/PDF/Youth%20Loads.pdf 4895 can be loaded as light as 60% of the maximum charge so I could load a 168gr smk down to 34.6 gr and still be in the clear.  Anyone have any experience with this?  Am I headed for trouble?

Thanks

On my phone...google "Trail Boss .pdf". I load the .300 H&H with 110 grain bullets. Very low recoil.

Yes it works, and yes the chart refers to H4895.
