[QUOTE="BEEMAN, post: 2129169, member: 38130"] Friend of mine finished his 300 PRC this past weekend. He had some old Hornady 208 match hollow point. Was going to use these just to get on paper. Hard to get on paper when they all blew up! There was a few tiny pieces made it to 100 yds as there was small holes in the paper. His barrel is a 9 twist IBI. Was only running them just over 2900 FPS. Those bullets must have an extremely thin jacket. I agree with others that the 180 should be fine out of your barrel. I run lots of bullets in the 300,000 rpm range. [/QUOTE]
