I've got a very similar setup. PP with Nikon.
Mine likes TAC really well but only in the 23-23.5g range in 68g and only 23g in 75g Amax Hornadys.  Anything above or below opened groups up noticeably.  I have not tried TAC with lighter pills.  Ive found these loads work super in mine:

52g Sier match
25.0 IMR 4895
.62 group avg

68g Horn
23.4 TAC
.57 group avg

68g Horn
25.9 Varget
.67 group avg

68g horn
23.5 H335
.84 group avg

75g Hor Amax
23.0 TAC
.52 group avg

Yes your right my 68gr Hornady loads did seem better with lower charges.I might revisit some of those, i think i have some left over as well.
Does your match trigger work, mine sucks in both my RRA's?

"Does your match trigger work, mine sucks in both my RRA's? " I have the same rifle, my trigger is fine, not the best, but good.Same for an Entry Tactical, it might even be a bit better. What do you mean it don't work ?

Thats wild I have an Entry Tactical as well.The triggers only have single stage, never had 2 stage.Its better then a stock trigger but is sorta hard to get of  i guess about 5 lbs or more.
I ordered a AR Gold for the PP and sent a new trigger group to Bill Springfield for his 4 LB and speed hammer to put in the ET as i just shoot Tactical Course style with that.
The AR Gold was expensive but I am obsessed with trying to get great groups with the PP and really working on everything.Breath control needs a lot of work.

Has your Gold trigger been delivered?  If so, how do you like it?

No not yet and is coming from Grand Prairie Tx which should be next day.I wrote to see when its going to ship but no answer yet.The reviews on it are graet but it is not cheap.
Seems like communication with them is not that great. I am one who really appreciates fast order status, updates and tracking numbers.I do it at my business.
