[QUOTE="Lou270, post: 2670811, member: 5352"] And the next 5 are 30-30 win 270 win 243 win 300 win mag 7 rem mag The prc rounds are great - but they are a niche market on folks who will spend a lot for small gain - ie the LR crowd. If the 7prc kills anything it will be the 6.5 prc or 300 prc or both. It is eating market off that niche more than anything. The 6.5 cm is low recoil and in different class than the other prc rounds - works great in cheapo light bolt guns with narrow crap recoil pads that appeal to Joe deer hunter. Fire off a 7prc with a 180 @ 3000 fps in one of those - Joe deer hunter wont like it. Not taking anything away from 7prc - great concept. A “modern” 7mm, like the 6.8w is a “modern” 270. Doubt either will take over, but give their resepctive churner fan boys (me:)) something new to buy and the gun manufacturers a boost Lou [/QUOTE]
