  1. I know this topic is getting beat to death lately... but I wanted to post my thoughts and get some opinions. I think I make sense, but there are way more knowledgeable shooters on this forum than me. I think when you compare the two rifles in an off-the-shelf purchase situation, the 7 PRC definitely has a slight advantage in that it's potential has already been maxed out in terms of seating depth for longer, higher BC bullets. The factory set-up in a 7mm Rem Mag has some limitations and you do have to seat bullets way deeper and into the powder capacity area, along this the slower twist rate compared to the PRC. But here are my thoughts... In a custom build rifle where you can choose the barrel, the twist rate and the throat length in the chamber... I feel like the 7mm Rem Mag has the advantage. I was getting really close to starting a custom 7PRC build and the more I researched the more I felt that in a custom rifle where you can maximize the COAL and extend the seating depth, I just don't feel like the PRC has any advantage at all. Am I crazy? With a 180gr Berger VLD, I get 2945 FPS out of my custom 284 Winchester and a 26" barrel. With my custom 7Mag, I am pushing to 3000 and I can't even seat as far out as I wish I could. I would like to push out to COAL of 3.600" and I am only able to get 3.400 in my rifle. I think if you build a rifle that allows for the max length... you would actually best the 7PRC. (Both of my loads are using 7828SSC powder). I would love to hear some thoughts on this.
  2. Selling a Browning X-Bolt Eclipse Hunter in 7mm rem mag. I’ve only put 2 boxes of ammo down the barrel and the rifle is in excellent condition (only blemish can be seen in pic). This hunting rifle has a 26 inch stainless steel barrel and will include the base with the level in it. Asking $900. May be interested in trading for other firearms depending on what you have to offer. Located in Tucson (east side). 520-two7two-4515
  3. Browning X-Bolt ATACS AU 7mm Rem Mag. Gun has about 75 rounds through it. I used Hornady 154 SST through it. See last photo below for details. $700 obo
