7mm TCU jacketed 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 the 160-grain Sierra boat-tail 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. (Handloader Issue 96)
