[QUOTE="Dragoon300, post: 2492709, member: 115285"] That's what happens all the time, a round is designed to be efficient, it gets standardized, then better bullets are made to improve it. The new bullets won't fit or maybe even work within the original specifications of the cartridge. Manufacturers are held to the original specifications so its not their fault. Another day in the life if living on the cutting edge, or trying to. Magazines too short, throats too short, twist to slow, you name it. That's why we build custom rifles. The PRC is a good cartridge, but its right at the limit of the short actions. Try loading them to fit your magazine and see how it goes, others have done it. It will likely not have the velocity you expected, but may work ok for you. . [/QUOTE]
