7mm PRC short barrel?

[gtriple]

Is Unknown planning on loading for the 7PRC? I have them building me a 20 inch 7PRC in a Rokstok. Just waiting on the stock at this point. I was planning to do my own loading, but haven’t totally decided yet.

Yes, they have already loaded mine.

Nice! Did you have them do a load work up?

Nah, I just told them to use whatever their best "factory" load is using the 175gr ELD-X. I do the same thing with the 6.5CM and 6.5PRC. Both are plenty accurate that I've never felt the need for a custom loading.

Good to know. Thanks

This was all the more spice my gun likes with Peterson Brass. Not even max according to Hodgdon but.....pretty good for 18 inch barrel. Got a few other loadings to try today. This stuff is super fine like the StaBall powders. So maybe a few kernels difference made the numbers vary.

2900 out of an 18” is nuts

Another data point. I have a 7 PRC built by Unknown Munitions, Bat Vesper medium action, Rokstok, Ace #2 barrel at 19”, TB ultra 7. I’m shooting Hornady factory 180 eldm lot# 3233832 at 2710 fps. I have about 200 rounds through it and the barrel hasn’t really sped up (maybe 5-10 fps, and I’ve been chono’ing most of my shots).

It's pretty easy with N560 too but it's hard to find an right now the Grand is new an cheap so long as I get 2800 or so I'm happy
