I have a Savage Axis in .308 that I've enjoyed handloading for. Problem is that I have a small frame and after trying several powders and loads I've decided that it's just not fun to shoot. The reduced loads with 4895 were nice, but I don't want to be dependent on one powder, especially one I've only seen once since 2012.
The purpose of my rifle is hunting Kentucky whitetails, target shooting and hand loading for fun. Would I get a worthwhile reduction in recoil form down grading to 7mm08? What about 30/30? I have a .243, but it's my wife's. I could target shoot with the .243 and hunt with the .308, but I'd rather do both with the same rifle.
