[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3962251, member: 8862"] A lot of those old mil surps took care of business. OP if recoil may be an issue then some lighter reloads (like 125 grain bullet in .308 Winchester) might be the ticket - but may not cycle a semi auto. I know in some rifle calibers, Hornady had "Custom Lite" ammunition and Remington had "Managed Recoil" but I haven't seen those on the shelf since before Covid.
