I'm doing just that. Working my way up to the hornady loads. Overall I like the 4 inch. You definitely lose some velocity, but the form f actor is great for hunting. I think the recoil isn't bad, and I've heard the balance with a 4 is really nice for offhand shooting, and I have to agree. Wouldn't mind having a 8 inch to get all the velocity in the future though! What loads have you worked up?
