Fire forming new brass
So I got some new nosler brass. It's for 30-06 I'm looking for an opinion on loading it lite. I'm going to use hornady 150 FMJ's. I usually load them with 46.5 gr of RL15 and they shoot well at 100 yds, but I was thinking if I can drop the powder charge down cause I'm not looking for accuracy, how low can I go? I was thinking maybe 38-40 gr should be OK. What's your opinion? I'm just trying to save some powder if I can get away with it.

If you are going to do that, use H4895 for reduced loads, 40gr is about 60% which is just about right.

I load my 308 with 12 gr of Trail Boss and get 1/2 min accuracy but that powder is hard to find. I have read that reduced loads of many other powders can create pressure problems so I would be leery.
