7mm Rem Mag with 120 TTSX

Have read a number of posts about Reloder 22 and the 120 TTSX in 7mag. Was planning to try this load just to have it on the books - if needed. I don't know why (like any reloader who is hooked on this reloading thing) I need to try it because I have a wonderful 160gr Accubond load that is consistently 0.5" @ 100 yards.

BUT, the 160 AB load is using N165... which, according to Vhitavouri is at the same burn rate with R22. But, N165 is more temp stable. So, has anyone tried N165 with the 120 TTSX in 7mag?

I don't see any load data for this specifically - anyone got access to quickload and can help with numbers?

EDIT to add: Shooting Tikka 7mag with 24" barrell
 
If your looking for accuracy 120 Horn HP. In every 7mm I have owned from 7TCU thru 7 MAG shoots the smallest repeatable groups.
 
Rem 700-7 RM
120g TTSX
72-73g R#22
CCI 250***
.050 jump
bug holes abound
We also killed a LOT of White Tails with the 120g Nosler Ballistic tip with the exact same load, bullet just about touching the lands

We know nothing of Other powders with the 120's with the 7 Mag.

We shot IMR 7828 and R#22 in the Custom 7 STW's with zero freebore, 120's at 3850 fps on a 26" barrel, tiny, tiny bug holes, 215 primers. One 27" 11 twist pac nor zero freebore barrel was 3920 fps with the 120g Barnes ttsx shooting sub 1/4" three shot groups, 8-32 Burris Black diamond scope. Cousins have two 7 STW's with zero freebore, I have two, brother has two, and my deceased mechanic has one with zero freebore. Hart, Pac Nor, and set back NEW 7 Mag Sendero barrels.

I would love to shoot some chucks or Coyotes with 120g V max at 3850 fps...WOW!
