Recently purchased a 14" 7-30 Waters barrel for my Thompson Contender.
My reloading dies arrived this afternoon so I sized some 30-30 brass to fire form them.
I loaded some old 120 grain Nosler solid base boat tails in front of a starting load of H4895.
The shoot n see target is my sight in as I walked it up and out to 50 yards with the last two shots being in the red dot.
The other target was shot at 50 yards also.
After I get all of my brass fire formed I will try to do a bit of experimenting with this one.

Congratulations on the 7-30 Waters. Great round with either a 120 gr BT or the 140 gr BT. I've shot .25" groups with mine using Varget. Muzzle flash was there, even on bright sunny days shooting in the shade. I switched to RL15 and get sub MOA accuracy.
