Is it possible to reload 300 win mag light enough to compare to a 30-06 or a 308 (a deer round) without going as light as the managed recoil rounds?
What kind of powder would you use and how much?
Yes it is, what rifle are you using and is it Mag-N-Ported? I had mine done, and with my Elk Loads the felt recoil is about the same as my .308
wouldn't ever go with magnaporting, would rather have a brake
1) about the same costs
2) it is irreversable
3) you lose barrel length, so in turn your velocity drops
4) much louder than a brake, maybe not so much as loudness as its the sharp ear piercing crack that is almost unbearable, I know wear hearing protection, but I just don't feel right wearing ear plugs in the field when I'm lookin and listening for telltale signs of game.

As far as #'s 1 & 2 on your list your right, but 3 & 4, what are you talking about, losing barrel length and valocity? And the brake is louder.
