Remington reduced loads?

Remington must have read my mind! I don't reload and was thinking about how nice it would be to have a lighter load for my 7MM RM.
I looked on Rem's web site, and on paper these loads seem to be a little less than the 7MM-08, but still plenty for medium range whitetail hunting! I am going to be looking for these loads soon.
I think these light loads will only be in .270, 30-06, and 7MM RM. If any of you try them out, please post your opinions here! Good or bad!

Come on Frank, forget about those reduced loads. You know you need an excuse to pick up a 7mm-08 Rem.

Hehehe!! Yeah you're right Frizz! But until I can afford one, I'll have to play with different loads.
On "paper" these 7MM RM reduced loads are more in line with the .260 than the 7MM-08!

Although they were not reduced loads.I did have a blast playing with some 120 gr. hollow points in my 7mm rem.mag.
