[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 2429441, member: 10429"] I looked over the numbers and it hard to compare since the 264 did not have the same twist rate as the PRC. But my question is with the short fat PRC case does it burn powder more efficiently than the longer 264 case and is the same velocities obtainable or will one out do the other when using the heaviest bullets? It seems when the RUM was compared to the 300PRC it was able to out preform the PRC with the 250’s pretty easy. I wonder if this will be the same on the 264win. I already own a new unfired 264win in a 26 inch Sendero 2. It matches my RUM. Just haven’t scoped it yet but it only has a 1:9 twist barrel which is the big limiter. I will probably shoot out this barrel but for future reference it left me wondering. I’m also looking at this from a good consistent load practice of one that is not over pressure and on the ragged edge pushing the cartridge for all I can get. [/QUOTE]
