I got a Rem. 721 in 30-06 2 weeks ago, 1-10 TWIST, I pillow and glass it, Floated the barrel but glass under the chamber, Put on Leouplod bases and 24 X Redfield target scope, Started with 38 grs. 4831 and 40 grs. 4064 with NOE 311284 ,Eagans ARD and RCBS 200 gr. Sil. all bullets were bumped in my bump die to make the bullet seat at the base of the neck,After 6 shots to sight in and shooting 3 shot groups I had some nice groups fromm 3/4 in to 1 1/2 in. at 100yds. But the barrel heated up very fast and hot, And recoil was painfull with a rubber pad on it. I poured cold water on barrel to cool it down,
The next loads were 18 grs. 4759 with the same bullets, These were mild loads and got some groups under 1in., Back out today and it was all sour, nothing worked, Whats going on, No leading at all. Would bullets under 190 ghr. be better in a 1-10 teist, Whats yous shot foe good loads in a 30-06 and 1-10 twist, Thanks- JOe
