7mm TCU cast bullets
7mm TCU cast bullets
Warning! Notes: All loads in LC 74 brass using CCI 400 primers. Group sizes listed may vary with other 7mm TCU barrels.

Heavier bullets including cast bullets 170284 and 287308 had to be seated fairly deep in the case to avoid forcing the loaded bullet into the barrel lands upon chambering. The amount of freebore in the 7mm TCU Contender is not sufficient for normal seating of heavy bullets.
