Anyone tried TAC with 7mm08?

[HuntClub]

Wanting to work a load with 110 or 120 TTSX and thinking about TAC. Have tried Varget and RE15 but did not like results. Have TAC on hand.

We shoot IMR 4895 with 9 1/2 primer, 42.0g with a 130g Speer spt at 3000. So, this load could be adjusted for a 120g TTSX, jump that bullet .050 to start. Check a Nosler manual for most accurate powders and loads for a particular powder, they work well for us with other Barnes bullets.

I have not tried that powder in the 7mm08, and ramshot shows no data for that powder/cartridge. The Sierra loadmap on this site shows a very narrow band of charge weights for Tac with the lighter bullets, suggesting it isn't a good fit for the 7mm bore. There is a ton of loads for the 308, same case, just pushing it through a different size hole makes all the difference. In the little research I did, a lot of people are asking the same question about this combo.
