[QUOTE="Mike D Texas, post: 2649469, member: 71221"] Ryan Furhman put out a good video on it. Ballistically the 7SAUM, 7PRC and 7RM are the sweet spot regarding case capacity and are all within 1-2 grains of each other (in his opinion). So it begs the question, what is so great about the 7PRC? In my opinion nothing for the custom rifle builder. Run the 7SAUM on a medium length action, throat and twist it properly and it will *probably* be the most accurate of the 3 listed. -or- Run a 7Mag that has tons of brass, dies, etc…throat/twist it properly and it will outperform velocity wise the PRC. For the guy that wants to buy a factory rifle and shoot factory ammo with heavy, high BC bullets, the PRC line offers a good bit for them. Until the premium (ADG, Peterson, Lapua, Alpha) brass and die manufacturers catch up it’s a fool’s errand for a hand loader to go with the 7PRC. [/QUOTE]
