[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2459605, member: 30902"] It's a wildcat, there are several versions around though. I bet if you were to call Widdon, PT&G and/or Hornady and talk to their custom guys they have some reamer spec's drawn already. In my verson I'm going to just neck down the 300PRC to 6.5 and maybe push the base of the neck forward slightly increasing the shoulder angle so I can maximize case capacity. I'm still not completely settled on it yet and may just do the same with the parent case, the 375 Ruger since there have been no issues with it and extraction. I've got a few months to ponder on it before going forward but I intend doing a 6.5, 7mm, and 338 all based off of the same cartridge with only a difference in neck size to separate them so I want to have it right. The extraction issues that keep popping up with the 300PRC and 6.5PRC seem to be due to a reduction in case taper as much as anything so I want to dig into a bit further before spending my limited money on three relatively expensive projects.
