175,180 + gn 7 MM in 7 TCU /7 x 47

Post by BADDOG-0302 »

Has anyone any loading data for a 7 TCU or 7x47 using 175 or heavier bullets ? I know the RCBS 168 7 MM drops at 177 +- so those would count as well

Years ago when I was shooting cast in my 7 TCU I would use 18.5 grains of AA5744 behind the RCBS 145 and then the RCBS 168 for a ram load. If using heavy jacketed bullets you might get higher pressures so load at your own risk.
