    I dont have one but looking at all the options it comes out as about the best all round NZ chambering imo. It achieves almost 7WSM velocities with a lot less powder and recoil. 'Mark and Sam after work' have done a bit with it and found it to be a very very efficient and accurate cartridge.
    This new 7 PRC will need a longer barrel than a Saum because of the greater volume of powder, so shorten it down to 22 -24 and see how it goes. For sure it will be good as a PRC competition round but will it be any better than a 300WSM as a powerful hunting round ?
