Not much help with the TMK, because I haven't been able to find any. You are a lucky man Les, if you have a stash of them. I've been running the 77 SMK through a skinny barreled Tikka T3 lite:

Load data:

77 SMK
30gr AR Comp
Lapua brass
BR2 Primer
2.480" (.020" off lands)

Disclaimer: This load is safe in my rifle, it may not be in yours. Work up.. This load will shoot .3 moa for 5 shots at 100 yards in my Tikka. I'd also be very tempted to try StaBall 6.5, as I have had very good luck with it shooting 69gr pills. YMMV..

BSA, I also have the Tikka 22-250 1-8. I have an Silencerco SAR brake with a Saker 556 suppressor. I have 2 lbs. of AR Comp and 500 77SMK's. I'm thinking about starting at 29 grns of AR Comp and working up in.2 increments. Your thoughts please.
