I am the opposit... I like a stiff charge, and I am not recoil concious, so I do not even think about... but I really believe in the old addage "speed kills" but a couple of weeks ago shooting my 50 with PRB's a 60 grain charge of T7-3f felt like a cap gun and it was fun to shoot paper with....

And yes! I know that you really not need all that powder especially if you are shooting full bore conicals - especially the heavy ones - can not even imagine shooting a 500 grain 45/70 - seems like you could run with a knife and get there before the bullet.

If you can not enjoy shooting it would not be any fun at all..
ouch, shoulder hurts reading that.
