I understand why MR loads would be desired for a variety of reasons.

I also think that there are many ways to reduce recoil via other means that should reduce the kick enough to use standard loads.

The best example given to this point has to be about kids using a rifle you already own, or if you suffer an injury causing weakness in your shoulder (I'll add that) would keep you from purchasing a new firearm. Let's face it, new guns can be pricey, and sometimes you need to keep costs down. Especially if the need to reduce the recoil is just a temporary thing.

I still think that a lot of people are using MR loads unnecessarily. I'd rather do something with the stock of a gun I own and use the partitioned rounds I like for hunting. I like the comfort of having the heavier hitting ammo for hunting, and learned to shoot my firearms with the rounds I use for hunting/plinking.

That's just my personal thoughts on the subject of MR loads.
