[QUOTE="StanleyActual, post: 2361081, member: 119220"] 300PRC brass is hard to come by and to make it worse so is loaded ammo. 300WM is not. Not to mention multiple manufacturers make ammo for the 300wm so brass and ammo is available. I’d get a 300wm and have it throated for heavier bullets and run with it. Ballistics will be virtually identical with components and ammo being easier to find. If I was gonna stay in a standard LA, I’d go 7 Rem Mag. You’re gonna be hard pressed to find higher BC bullets than the 7mm’s til you get into the big 30’s. I’m running 180 hybrids at 2950 w/ 71gns of H1K and no pressure. That’s gets me to 1k in 6.6 Mils at 1000’ DA. It’ll fit your bill perfectly and do it with less recoil. I’ve currently been trying to Make a decision on a big 30 and decided against the 300 RUM and went with the 300 Norma due to the Lapua brass. 230’s at 3k+ is pretty appealing to me. 😂 [/QUOTE]
