CAMPEST (thought I'd try this as I think CAMPIEST has been previously rejected)
BOUNDED
8/4*75+7=157 (2 off)
TEACHES (I presumed TEACHEST was not one word)
MAILER
4*75-25-(10-9+5)=269
SHINERS
(75-50)*(8-1)+5=180 (1 off)
DRAMATIST (45s)

Yes, you're correct on both fronts -- CAMPIEST (or, indeed, CAMPY) is not in the Macquarie, since CAMP is the adjective. And TEA-CHEST is hyphenated. Good judgment from you!

1. [invalid -- CAMPSITE; only listed as two words, alas] (I had several sevens, such as IMPACTS, and that is the best to be done)
2. BOUNDED
3. 159 = 7*25 - 4*4
4. BATCHES
5. LOAMIER* (looks like all the sevens are starred, so the show would only allow sixes)
6. 269 = 4*(75 - 9) + 5
7. HARDINESS
8. 181 = 5*(50 + 1) - 75 + 9 - 8
9. DRAMATIST (2.8s)
