    I only shot 6 groups withy 2 powders, RL16 & RL26, 26 delivering over 3000

    That load produced the best group, the others weren't too bad at all, way good enough for a light short hunting rifle

    I might give it another go, its really a test rifle, with its twin sister 7PRC

    Greg would you mind sharing your rl26 charge for this. I don't think I was getting anywhere near 3k with the same pills out of my saum. I would surely like to replicate.
    I am getting the same accuracy at 100 yards with rl22 going 2928fps but only printing 1.8 inch groups at 300 yards which is a bit disappointing.
    Cheers G

    Quite impressive compared to short a barreled 6.5 prc. Which essentially is a long barreled creedmore...

    For anyone contemplating having a barrel done in 7 PRCW, make sure the reamer used is .535 at the .200 line. Some of the earlier reamers were .533 and inevitably caused clickers after a couple of reloads. The only fix for that was hyper expensive dies like the Cortina.

    Mainly ADG brass that accentuated that problem

    I have 6.5, 7-6.5, 7, & 300 PRC reamers all with the bigger size

    So I have 10 PRC reamers in total with another on the way.......
