[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2390575, member: 30902"] It's a brilliant strategy for both Hornady and Ruger but the PRC simply doesn't offer anything over existing calibers for me. It's in a nice slot recoil and velocity wise but you can pretty much duplicate any load for the PRC in 300wm. We live in a country driven by "Newer is Better" and now "belts are bad". I may have room for exactly one more 300 between my WM's and Rum's and that's going to be a 300-375 Ruger Wildcat purely for my own entertainment. Truth is, for the average hunter the .308win or 06will do all they'll ever need in the 30 cal slot. We tend to forget most folks will never attempt a shot on game beyond a couple of hundred yards and have therefore no need for a 30 cal magnum of any kind. When you hang out in a particular clique like we have here it's easy to forget the other guys and their needs. [/QUOTE]
