Thread: 7mm PRC

I am shooting / loading 7mm PRC
using H1000 66.5 to 67.5 MAX , 215 magnum primers , Hornady Factory brass , 175 gr ELD-x , in 24 inch barrel , makes 2881 to 2930 ft/sec . BEWARE 68 grains is hot in my rifle .... ejector marks , very tight bolt lift , primer cratering .
Loads are about the same as factory ( there is bullshit on the boxes suggesting you will get 3000 ft/sec ) average velocity 2930 .
PM me if you need any other info .
I use Gordons Reloading Tool ..... 2881 ft/sec was predicted and that was ( remarkably ) exactly what the load made . Never had that before .
cheers
