[QUOTE="lhp63190, post: 1892598, member: 96319"] I've started collecting parts for a 300 PRC build as a dedicated elk/bear/moose/large plains game hunting rifle. I want to build it on a mid-weight platform (10 lbs w/ scope) and shoot Berger 215's with a velocity goal of 3000 FPS. Planning to use a Proof Research barrel but this will be my first build with a proof barrel. Below are a couple of questions: Sendero vs Light Sendero -- Planning to build on a Gunwerks Magnus stock which will accept either. Only a couple ounces difference in the two, any significant (dis)advantages either way? 24" vs 26" -- Ideally, I'd like to build this on a 24" barrel but am concerned about getting to my desired velocity goals. Also, I was planning to use H1000 but could look at N570 if it would help me get to 3000 w/ 24" barrel. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
