300 prc loads
- Thread starter remington jim
- Start date
Man I thought there might be a FEW more 300 PRC shooters out there - Guess not AH ! LOL RJ
lol
Thxs ! Yea its a GREAT site ! RJ
I settled on Reloder 25, GMM215M primers, reloading Hornady brass after I fire the factory rounds.
I am hoping that Hirsch Precision will receive their 300 PRC Lapua brass by the end of August, however Lapua already has delivered their 300 PRC brass to the US market in May.
I also put an order in for 200 pieces of new Hornady brass at Higginson's - I will probably cancel that since my local Canadian Tire has the 225gr match in stock at $65 per 20 after 4% CTM. New brass, bullets, powder and primer comes to ~$62 per box of 20.
Ballistic tools makes primer pocket and neck tension gauges. That's the last equipment I need to start reloading with confidence. I have Hornady dies, the various ELD seating stems, a Lee deluxe die set (ordered just for the factory crimp die), and a Lee case length gauge so I can trim the brass to spec.
Feel free to PM me...

Maybe the 300 PRC is too new to have a big following up here yet.
That's GETTING it DONE and Accurate ! I will try some ! Just got some N570 also ! Should work well also - RJ
Haven't played with it since last fall (since I got the fierce carbon edge 6.5 PRC) but looking back at my targets for the 300PRC Christensen Arms show 80-81 grs of RL-33 and 245 EOL's shooting sub 1/2 MOA and around (2850fps if I remember correctly) @ 81grs.

Interesting ! Bare only got 2755 FPS with 77.7 H1000 under a 225 gr BUT. JJ got Nearly 3000 FPS with the same ( 77.5)load and only 2 more inches of barrel ! About 250 FPS more. . RJ
