[QUOTE="cjholler, post: 2769582, member: 43446"] I don’t have a dog in this fight because I built a 338 SS, the larger the bore the less velocity you lose when cut a barrel back. Plain and simple pressure=velocity. I disagree with the above statement carry a suppressed 26” barrel see how long you carry it. Hunting accuracy is different than bench, plain and simple, dead is dead! Most cans are a 6”, yes I do hunt out west, I live in Kalispell, MT. I don’t pay hunting guides so I am not showing up picking out a bull/buck. The new prc line is going to be successful because the tighter chamber tolerance and factory ammo is great! Which the 7 RM is lacking can you throat it out, yes you can buy this, but it involves a gunsmith. Plus upgrading the bottom metal to accommodate a bullet that is loaded longer than sammi specs. A lot of people hate on hornady ie (6.5 creedmoor, 6.5 prc and 300 prc). Simple fact that you can buy factory ammo that shoots sub MOA is what Sells these cartridges. Plus the fact the army is using the 6.5 creedmoor and 300 prc through history the armed forces influenced the firearms industry. [/QUOTE]
