So, it begs me to ask with the Peterson brass supposedly being a harder brass how many loads have you put the brass through? Any issues with the dreaded clicking problem that has been stated with PRC cartridges? I picked up a 8 twist barrel waiting on dialogues concerning reamer dimensions. Contacted Manson and they are going with a .534 reamer at the 200 line instead of the minimum Saami of.5330.

Currently I have 100 brand new brass for it and around 100 or better twice fired brass. You can neck down 8mag brass that'll work and there's another caliber I can't think of now but heard it works too. Now if I had it to do over I wouldn't have gone that route. The 28 nosler seems like a better option in the .284 cal.

I have one pound of RL26 but I'll save that for hunts. The IMR 4350 will be fine for practice out to distance and barrel break in.
The 7mm bullets are excellent for long range hunting or long range shooting period.
I do not reload so having the 7 PRC shoot factory heavies so well is ideal for shooters like me.
I hope to test it to 1200 plus yards in the next month or so, just waiting on the new range to finish up the rifle side of things
I think it will shine at those distances

I've only fired the brass twice. The rifle was chambered with an AW specd reamer. No "clicks" noted.

I've owned many 7rm and the the 7prc. Does nothing different.
I currently own 7prc
it is very accurate and fun to shoot but dog **** brass.

Everybody in North America should listen to Oliver Anthony (rich men north of Richmond ) and take that to heart because that boy sings the truth I never seen this song or heard of a song in my lifetime that's a nerve like that

Not trying to butt into your conversation but all the different ammo and rifle companies are just trying to get you to spend more money to keep you buying The New and Improved stuff! Answer? Look at the old stuff! I shoot a 30-338 win mag in a Ruger M77 rebarreled with a Douglas Air gauged 26 in 1 in12 twist, it will push a 150 grain at almost 3500 fps an a Nosler 168 grain LRAB over 3300 fps, if you want to heavier bullets use a 1 in 10 twist or faster, do not believe anything until you shoot over a chrono. 338win mag brass is always available an just run it through an RCBS 30-338 die, load an shoot!
Yes, all based off the 375 Ruger which the 300 rcm is based off I believe.

Yeah I've been trying to get my hands on that R26 for a while now and can't find it. Fortunately I do have a few cans of H1000 I've managed to come across. I'd take more R15 too for my smaller gun if I find that.

Luckily H1000 seems to be more and more available lately. I haven't gotten any yet but hopefully we'll have a better supply of it.
