Would love to hear of your loads and results for this combo.
I am just looking for different starting points to see what may perform in my TCU.

21 Grains H4198 for my carbine and my Super 14. I would say that these bullets have worked well, I dispatched 2 G' Hogs with mine.

TC, I've tried bullets (cast and other wise) from 100 to 170 grains in my # T/C barrels. I almost have to work at getting a BAD load. It depends on what you want the load to do. I can get sub inch groups with some loads .Others are just great for hitting clay pigeons on the hundred yard bank. I've used WW748, IMR3031 and other powders in the 7T/CU with good to great results. IMR4227 is a good one if you are looking for speed. You can hit near 2200 fps in the 14" barrel with a 135 grain bullet, cast and gas checked.
I have a 7MMTCU 10 inch Barrell for my T/C. I use 4.8 to 5.2 grains Unique behind a 120 grain Cast GC bullet. 5.2 grains seems to be the most accurate. One day at range a fellow chronographed one shot for me and was 1035. I think that was 5.0 grains of Unique. A fun and accurate load. DD
I just want plink and play loads in the 1000- 1700 fps range.
Practice from 25-100 yds.

Yes that is a wide open range and I am hoping to get some starting points and cut down some load development time and powder to use for shooting practice time.
