Pete, generally speaking, "soft shooting" means reduced payload and/or velocity, because those are the most important factors where recoil is concerned. Most of the 3/4 oz loads should be pretty soft. One I like uses 3/4 ounce in an AA hull, Win primer and wad, 13.5 grains of American Select. With that load, you should be able to adjust your reloader so that you don't need any filler. Works that way for me anyhow.
