[QUOTE="Lazy D, post: 3076460, member: 112559"] It comes down to what is defined as “Better”. The 7PRC was designed to take advantage of the heavier high BC bullets that were not available in 1962. Most factory 7RM rifles are too slow of twist to take advantage of those bullets. It’s simply the evolution of bullet development that demanded a new caliber with new faster twist factory rifles. If you hand load a 7RM throw on a fast twist barrel, buy some heavy bullets and be happy. Side note, I’ve never seen any factory advertised velocity live up to their claims. [/QUOTE]
