Through the years i have found it best to just snug the nose if the breech plug to the face of the shelf in the barrel. I use a 1/4" ratchet, extension, and deep socket for insertion and removal.
Another thing I might suggest since you are using grease is to make sure that you, and you probably do, clean the threads in the rifle very each cleaning as the grease can harden and give you a false feeling of being snug. If any of that makes any sense...
