[QUOTE="Swamplord, post: 1545920, member: 2460"] public service announcement for those who may be unwittingly lured to throw their cash into a hole that won't offer any improvement over the original , it's like trying to improve the 300 Win Mag .... lots of $$, effort with no gains .... changing a shoulder angle 10 degrees and widening the top of body a bit to gain less than 2 gr of h20 capacity WILL NOT change much, a few fps faster maybe, barrel life will not magically improve, remember you just added a bit more fuel to the fire, with the 300 PRC, Hornady did very well in maxing case design and yet maintain it to where it will function very well at peak pressures for extraction, a solid design that will adapt quite well for semi auto and machine gun use, probably why it appeals to the DOD .... not dissing the cartridge at all, just don't care for the hyped up bs from Hornady, their minions and gun dummy followers the only way you can get any gain is with a longer freebore to seat bullet out of case for more powder space AND a longer barrel ..... you can do that with any cartridge [/QUOTE]
