[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2392422, member: 103947"] I think that's like saying the 6.5 PRC was designed for less performance than the 6.5-284 because there weren't heavy bullets when that cartridge was designed either. Let's face it, the 300 PRC WAS designed for competition needs and for loading long (not necessarily heavy) bullets that are high BC match bullets for ELR. That alone puts it in a different class performance wise than the 300WM. Not being enough to brag about, the PRC uses it's case more efficiently and able to fit in a 3.7" magazine doing it with those long bullets. These are things the 300WM can't do getting identical performance. The PRC also does have a little more case capacity. Not considering OAL, the 300WM is pretty much neck in neck with the PRC in performance. Edge goes to the PRC just as edge goes to the 6.5 PRC vs 6.5-284. [/QUOTE]
