I would suggest that you outline your exact methodology you are using....line by line in detail....which would allow us to review it and see if we can pick up on any issues or inconsistencies you have with your process.
This is what I did before my first all grain batch a few years ago and I got great feedback...that was very helpful for all grain brewing.
If your recipe estimate for OG is 1.052 and you are getting 1.030...then your efficiency is more like 40%....since most recipes are already based on 70% efficiency...I cannot imagine your efficiency is really that low though.
WHen you say your measured OG is 1.030 as an example you give....is that the pre-boil OG? Is that at 68 degrees F???
We will need more info....
