Youth Entry Load

[Riggo]

My 8 year old son says that he is ready for our upcoming youth season. Loves shooting the 22 and 17 however the 20 guage has been to much for him even with light bird shot loads. What i'm trying to do is start a load in my TC Pro-Hunter. Currently i'm using BH 209 [95 gr] with the shockwave bullet with great luck. Do you all suppose i could shoot like 60 or 70 grains and decrease the kick?? maybe even 50.?? I don't want to spook him right off the bat. Anyone have any thoughts or experience with this??
Thanks in advance for any info

Try 80 grains of powder pushing a 200 grain .44 cal xtp. Keep shots inside 100 yards. I've had great results on deer with the hornady xtps.
