Using the 311407 mod I was able to get some dandy results from my Rem 700 in 30-06.
CCI LR primer
Rem brass
IMR 4759 powder
All gooves in boolit filled with felix lube (toilet gasket wax substituted for bees wax)

Charges of 25 to 27 grains of 4759 produced 3 shot groups in the 5/8” to 3/8” range at 75-80 yards. I think minor differences in groups between charges were largely a matter of shooter variation and the 5 to 10mph cross wind. Moving the target back to 150 yards I was still able to hit a 2 inch bull easily once I accounted for about 2 inches of wind drift.

I had less than stellar performance previously with loads from 27 to 30 grains of 4759 and liquid alox instead of felix lube.

Just because it is "easy", I've used the liquid alox with good results on high volume/low power hangun loads and with the 30 cal soup can group buy. But I once again got the velocity itch and for that Felix lube is the bomb.

Haven't tried any of the lubes made by Bullshop and LAR since I'm a screw it up yourself kind of guy. But I do keep hearing good things about Speed green and Carnauba red.
