I want to reduce recoil, but I also want to ensure my rounds are effective in the field. Can anyone suggest a load that balances both?

Do you have a specific grain in mind? Lighter bullets can be too fragile in some applications.
Definitely, lighter bullets work better for varmint hunting, for example. Make sure you’re aware of bullet construction for your intended use!
Funny how reducing recoil feels like learning a whole new craft. I just want to shoot without worrying about my shoulder!
Haha, isn’t that the truth! If only we could invent a recoil-less AR-15!
Reflecting on all this talk about ammo… I’ve learned that experimentation is key. Everyone’s rifle handles differently, so don’t be afraid to play around with loads.
