I'm right here fiver! I've been watching this thread.
And IMR 4227 is a winner in the '06 with cast. Just about any decent 180ish to 200ish GC'd cast bullet, luber or PC'd, over 20ish plus grains of 4227 will yield roughly 1600 - 2000 fps and provide fine accuracy at 100 yards. I've been shooting 21.0 - 22.0 grains with Ly 311291 and RCBS 30-180-SP, lubed and more recently PC'd, in a monthly military bolt match at my club for well over 20 years. I shoot a 'as issued' CMP 03A3 that now has well over 6K rounds through it, and it still delivers excellent results Recoil is more than tolerable, and it is just a fun load to shot, considering the match is 50 records rounds, plus sighters and barrel warmers, off the bench.
All one has to do is find the bullet best liked in what your shooting, sized accordingly, and then fiddle with the charge to find the best combination. The bore is shiny and clean. It seldom gets cleaned. The worst was enough years ago that Felix was still with us. All of a sudden, the accuracy went south. Turned out a hard lube ring had formed just forward of the chamber. Played to devil's game getting out, eventually with multiple solvent soakings and a a one way tornado brushing. Felix claimed is was caused by microbial bacterial residue buildup - bug poop!
But, that's aside from the virtues of 4227 in the '06.
In Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook, 3rd edition, page 92, there is an article by Frank Marshall concerning this subject. He settled on 4759 for his loading. I've tried it early on and had better results with 4227, but that is what 'worked for me'. I've recently been experimenting with surplus 4759, apparently pull down 7641 from demilled 30 carbine. Results are encouraging.
