I neck size in some instances but usually just in my LR guns that don't run the risk of getting filthy. My match guns get FL sized and I apply the same line of thought to most of my hunting guns.
For the .30-30 Improved I'm using Federal brass (bought 100 rounds of Federal Blue Box) and have another 75 pieces to fire-form. I just ordered a new front sight post when I got home from a week of training. I should have it installed by next weekend. It probably won't be until the last two weeks of September when I take some use/lose leave that I get much shooting done.
Once I get the rest of the cases fire-formed I'll start load development with the 160 FTX and either IMR3031 or H4895 because I have a lot and they seem to be popular for that chamber. I use IMR3031 in my Smokeless Muzzle Loader and H4895 in my AR and bolt practical rifles so either is fine with me. I have seen some mention of Varget and RL15 also and I have a lot of that too for match guns.
