[QUOTE="Paladin300, post: 2787946, member: 115299"] I just started what I think is a fun discussion. Rifles are really built for a specific use and can be configured however the shooter wants it. No two are alike. Two rifles in the same caliber can shoot the same load 50 fps faster or slower than one another. It is interesting to me. I am a shooter not a collector. I don’t care what a rifle looks like. Does it shoot. I am also a little old school. I could have asked the same question about the 6.5x284 Norma (which is what I shoot and have for over 20 years) vs the 6.5 PRC but that topic has been exhausted already. The 7PRC is just new. For me you don’t gain enough over the AI and you have better brass choices with the AI at this point. But that could change. Not having to change the bolt is also an advantage on a switch barrel gun. It is just fun to me to listen and contemplate all the arguments for or against. There really is nothing new under the sun. It is all just repackaged and resold as the latest greatest. I think the Ackley is more efficient a case as well in the same way the 284 is, but that is all debatable. 🤔 It is all interesting to me to see how different shooters approach the same issues. Fun stuff! [/QUOTE]
