Thread: Rem 700 7PRC

I have built a couple of 7PRC's with one more coming, 26" 1-8, 22" 1-8.7 & 20" 1-8



This one has a 26" Bartlein #3 1-8 with an AG Composites stock



It has a little T1+ brake



It shoots very well for a reasonably light rifle, having very little to no recoil helps



It has pretty handy velocity as well, all groups were shot at Tikka mag length



Shot quite a few groups exploring performance envelops





I was having a few shooter induced group size issues



Over all this rifle is showing pretty of potential in both accuracy & velocity, it is available for sale as are the Tikkas

Awesome.

What sort of performance were you getting with the 22" if you don't mind sharing?

Edit; sorry just saw your other thread!

Looking good Greg.
So as expected, pretty much mirroring the performance of the Blaser Mag?

The 7BM should always have a bit more performance, it has more case capacity & strong brass

Doesn't fit into the Tikka magazine as nicely as the 7PRC though

Got this one all sorted with the A-tips



Now to take it out & get some first hand terminal performance data with the 190 A-Tips

Shot some groups with the factory ammo



Velocity wasn't far off the box, accuracy was better with the other two rifles

Have you done any work with the 20" barrel yet.

Impressive. How is brass availability, what is the weight of the rifle in the photo?

Thanks

It weighs 4.240kgs with VX5 3-15 x 56 with alumina's

No brass yet apart from that made from 300PRC or from fired/pulled factory ammo

How is 300PRC brass availability and does it neck size down without further work?

I have some Lapua 300PRC brass, no Hornady around, I pulled ammo down to get the brass

It needs to be shortened and neck turned as well
