A mate of mine had the exact same problem with his bergara, he tore his hair out then sold it.
I have found with my TC Encore 7mm RM that I don't expect the brass to last as long as in a bolt action. It is not finicky on its brand of brass so just buy once fired batches.
I had problem Tring to get it to group well with hand loads when in the past it shot well. I tried a lot of different powders and projectiles and ended up just chasing my tail! ended up being copper fouling in the bore.... Go figure. As soon as I did a copper removal clean she shot everything under an inch.
