Both the Dupont and IMR handloaders guides show 57 grs of IMR 4350 as maximum for the 30-06 and 180 gr bullets.

The velocity is 2750 fps.

I have used loads like that for years and done well even with military brass!

Presently I shot 58 grs pushing the 178 gr AMax out of my Ruger #1.

I never got consistant accuracy from 30-06 sporters as good as Kutenay gets. Perhaps he is a better shot than I am and has better guns. Most of my 30-06 sporters shoot 1" at 100 yds if I am lucky with 1.25" normal.
