Others have posted warnings about pressure excursions, but I thought
I'd add that there is at least one powder on the market that's very
good for reduced loads in rifle cartridges.  H4895 (and its clone
IMR4895) ignite and burn consistently even with dramatically reduced
loads.  The Hodgdon manual even claims their powder retains target
accuracy down to 3/5 normal loads.  I've tried it and it works very well.
