7-letter words with O as the 2nd letter and C as the 4th letter

This frame catches a lot of useful vocabulary: CONCEPT, CONCERN, CONCERT, COACHES, and PODCAST all place O second and C fourth. The 170 matches span 21 common words, so it is more navigable than a rare-letter pattern. The first letter still changes the route into the fixed middle C.

At a glance

• 170 tournament-list words fit _ O _ C _ _ _.
• Twenty-one entries meet the common-word measure.
• CONCEPT, CONCERN, and CONCERT are familiar.
• COXCOMB leads scoring at 22 points.
• S is the most frequent final letter, with 67 entries.

What stands out in this pattern

C- is the leading first-letter family, with 40 matches, followed by P at 21 and B and T at 16 apiece. That spread helps explain why CONCEAL and CONCEDE sit beside PODCAST, POPCORN, BOYCOTT, and VOLCANO. The fixed second and fourth tiles leave room for very different openings and endings.

COXCOMB scores 22, ahead of BOYCHIK at 21 and ZOCCOLO and ZOECIUM at 20. Those specialist scorers contrast with common examples such as CONCEPT and CONCERT. S ends 67 words; D ends 24, and E ends 20, giving a practical way to narrow an open final square.

7-letter words with O second and C fourth

Read this as a four-slot frame: first letter, O, third letter, C, then three open tiles. If the first square is C, the 40-word C group gives the strongest starting branch; if not, test P, B, and T before rarer initials. The list still includes technical terms, so a plausible sequence is not proof of game validity.

The final-letter counts are useful for a second pass after the first tile is known. S leads at 67, while D and E follow at 24 and 20. A C-starting candidate such as CONCERN is easy to recall, but the pattern also admits forms beginning P, B, T, and V, so keep the search open when the first square is constrained.
