I have my son shooting managed recoil 30-06 in 125 grain from Remington. I would like to reload the same ammo. Does anyone have the recipe to duplicate the loads?
 
Some help, and do you want even less recoil?

Looking at the Remington website, they say their managed recoil ammo has a 125 grain bullet doing 2660 fps:

I don't believe they will tell you anything more than that the bullet, primer and case they use are of their manufacture, but you can simulate the result.
Hodgdon has some "youth" data that is in the ballpark you are looking for:

I used to have a Father-in-law with a bad back and a bad heart, but loved to hunt. I got him a very light rifle, and loaded him some ammo using 125 grain bullets and IMR SR4759 that were going a bit slower than that. I looked under cast bullet data.

H4895

Thanks for the link Nu Judge. I looked around the site, and they recommend using 60% of the max load for H4895. I am going to reference your recipe as well. Thanks.
