    The 300PRC seems to be a modernised ballistic equivalent of the 300WM, better for reloading and for heavier bullets but at present harder to get factory ammo for.
    Local keen hunter runs a Tikka 6.5 PRC. Sent me a foto of the front quarters of a deer shot @ 494m. His butcher said cant do anything with the meat.
