I just picked up some 120gr flatnose 7mm projectiles[possibly discontinued Sierra??] for my 7-30 Waters TC 14 Contender.I don't see any load data for the flatnose version.
Anyone have any load/trajectory data for this style of projectile?
Am thinking of using 748 powder.
Thanks.

The bullets you my have maybe nosler I know that nosler made them just for the 7-30 waters you can use the load data in the nosler book if you have one it shows w=748 the start load is 31.5 grs up to 35.5 of W-748
I load for the 7-30 waters in a 14 inch contender and use R-15 33,5 grs and a 120 v-max fed 210gm primers and fire formed R/P cases 1 inch group all day long if you do your part good luck with your 7-30 waters they shoot great in the contender
W-748 14 inch tube fed cases fed 210 primers
31.5 = 2074 fps
33.5 = 2210 fps
35.5 = 2345 fps this right out of the nosler fifth edition

Thanks for the information.These projectiles have a boattail base,but a flat nose.I assume they were for tubular magazined rifles,but I'm going to give them a try in my TC.They were priced right,so we'll see what happens.

Yup, those are Nozlers made for the 7-30 Waters for the win-94 levergun. If you get Federal factory loads for the Waters, that's what is loaded in there. No need to use the flat nose in a contender, but they should shoot just fine.
