[QUOTE="MostlyUselessLurker, post: 3078231, member: 114934"] How does one beat the other with factory ammo? Honest question. Factory Ammo for 7 Rem Mag isn't shooting the same bullets (same weight and design) as 7 PRC other than one option. Please inform if there are others you're aware of. Federal Premium 155 Terminal Ascent 7 Rem Mag per box 3000 FPS 7 PRC per box 3100 FPS Hornady doesn't load the same weight ELD-X in the two. I realize the issue with Hornady factory ammo not always meeting advertised velocities. I'd challenge that by asking if 7 Rem mag ammo does? 7 Rem Mag 162 ELD-X advertised 2975 FPS 7 PRC 175 ELD-X advertised 3000 FPS So again, how does the 7 Rem Mag beat the 7 PRC "especially with factory ammo"? They're shooting two different weight class projectiles in basically all but one offering. Arguing the reloading side would be foolish. Of course you can reload a 7 Rem Mag to outperform a 7 PRC. Not everybody reloads for multiple reasons. Just to note, I own (1) 7 Rem Mag and (0) 7 PRC. ETA: I found a Remington offering if a 175 Speer Impact in their Premier Long Range lineup. Per Remington Website: 7 Rem Mag velocity 2860 FPS 7 PRC velocity 3000 FPS [/QUOTE]
