Varget, IMR 30-31, H335, Unique and Re-7 are all consistent performers in all 4 of my 30-30's
Rem Cor-locs 150-170gr, Oregon trail 165gr, Speer 130gr and 110gr Speer Varmint all are outstanding accuracy wise and performance on game.

29-30gr of IMR 3031 or Varget for the Rem
I use 35gr of H-335 for the speer and Sierra sometimes more.
9.5gr Of Unique for the Oregon trail cast bullet.

i use between 29 and 30 gr of h335 for my 160gr cast bullets with gas checks. plenty of punch and good accuracy. might i suggest slugging your barrel and getting a sizer die if you plan to go that route.

I use RL7 for bullet weights from 110 to 130, and IMR 3031 for 150 to 180. This is my favorite round.

I shoot both the 30-30 Winchester and the 30-30 Ackley Improved the NEF's and they like H-4895 and Winchester 748 powder with Bench Rest primers.
