If anything was likely to "kill off" the 7mmRM in NZ I'd pick the 6.5 PRC. You only have to watch the first part of Norway s new Ibex video to hear why. Extreme wind bucking with 156s at...

There is no real world difference between them. Since the 7mm Rem mag has had half a century of good will and achievement I really doubt the 7 PRC will ever be selling more rifles than the 7mm...

All sorted now. My local hnf had Fiocci 150gn on sale so I have it a try. It shoots the SST with a milder load than the super performance. It easily put x5 rounds under an inch. Chronoed at 2660...
