[QUOTE="264MHC, post: 2677837, member: 111161"] Interested in this as well. I think you should be fine with the PRC though. If factory ammo is pushing 3000 with 180s in a 24” barrel (not sure the real world results have been tested yet), I would expect 3100-3150 in a 22” barrel with a lead core 160 class bullet so even if it is 100fps slower you will still hit your target velocity. Plus the short PRC case should allow that bullet to be run in a rem long action mag no problem even though it is ridiculously long haha. You won’t be messing with powder capacity either since that chamber is designed around the 180 eldm. Can’t imagine the badlands would have any more bearing surface than that. [/QUOTE]
