Ranch Dog's 170 FP is excellent. Bought it to use in my 30-30 but ended up using it in a Savage 30-06 SS bolt gun. Accuracy was excellent in this rifle with 27.5gr 5744. I had to adjust the cartridge O.A.L. a couple of times to find where it would feed properly but it was worth the effort. This particular rifle will shoot it sub M.O.A at 1900-1950 fps. I shoot it as cast and finger lube with undiluted liquid alox for my hunting rounds. To keep the top end clean so it won't pick up lint and grit from my coat pockets. I just tumble tube the practice rounds cos they go to the range in a box. I seat the gas check with a Lee sizer that is the same diameter as the as cast bullet. Some believe in liquid alox, some do not, opinions vary all over the place. This particular combo does not lead at all in this rifle. It has many hundreds of these loads thru it and I have yet to find any leading. I use the old Lyman #2 formula for all my hunting rifles. Enjoy and good luck.
