[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2478640, member: 103947"] I think the 300 PRC and 300 WM are both close to the true upper end velocities of the cartridge in your tests. The 30 Nosler and 300NM look to be very conservative in your observations. No doubt the 300NM is the King of that Hill but with those numbers it fits closely with the other two. I could have easily just stayed with my 300WM but after seeing the 300PRC cartridge, i got a little excited with it's design so decided to build. Didn't want another Lapua BF action. Just wanted a non-belted case with a longer neck possibly able to improve it. Seems the 300PRC fits in that category. If it were all about performance, I'd have done what snox801 mentioned and went with a 30/338 LM improved. I'm happy with what my 300WM can do but I wanted it done easier with less pressures with the ability to use heavier bullets and keeping case capacity up. The Nosler was another great option but the PRCs case specs made my mind up [/QUOTE]
