Im going to try one for sure.....dont know when tho, Ill need to be able to source brass first.

If I can get a Go Wild in 7PRC thats likely to be the path i go.....unless the Cascade comes in 7PRC

It will...give it couple months. The 7 PRC is too good not to jump on it.

I own the Go Wild in 6.5 PRC, it's a good shooter.

thats what im hoping.
I havent had a Cascade yet and want to try one. Getting to mess with the 7PRC at the same time would be a bonus.
Ive had 2 Go Wilds, both 6.5CM both exceptionally accurate... and smoother than the average American.
 
I'll throw a slight twist in this discussion and say I wish the 6.5 PRC was a long action cartridge like the 7 PRC... I think they should have made the 6.5 with the case the 7 has. Now, don't get me wrong I love my 6.5 PRC, my Mossberg is a very accurate rifle especially the fact that it's a sub 500 dollar rifle. I told my boss that I had a nice Mossberg bolt action and he looked at me like I had two heads and acted like they were garbage. Anyway, sorry for de railing your thread, @JmacD...

Hmmmm…. I can’t say I agree… but that’s an interesting opinion
 
Im really only interested in a 7prc in a 3.2-3.4" action. Longer and id rather have more capacity, shorter and it wont fit.

Speaking of, id have liked to see the 6.5PRC with a slightly longer case as well, and may actually adopt whatever they end up calling the 6.5 version of the 7 when that gets necked down.
My other option is a long throat fast twist .264WM, my last one would drive 140s to 3250-3300fps which is fast enough to be worth the extra powder.

Yeah I kinda like the easy to handle short case and the higher recoil of having a longer case would not be great for ease of shooting. Cause with a muzzle brake I can shoot my 6.5 PRC no prob but my un braked 270 Win from a bench will be uncomfortable after a bit. I should take the muzzle brake off and see just how much difference it makes.

That would be a 6.5 LRPRC! (Long Range Precision Rifle Cartridge).

Same, I've been hoping for a medium, fast twist 7mm Magnum for a while, so I've already bought the Tikka that I'm going to use as a donor to put a PRC prefit on. That said, I'm not putting in the barrel order until I see component brass available. I got around Hornady's neglect of 6mm ARC reloaders by buying the relatively available and affordable ARC factory ammo, but I'm not interested in doing that for 7mm PRC.
 
Ammoseek has 7 PRC ammo starting at $89/ box of 20 before shipping. :eek:

Im sure it’s still too new and pretty uncommon right now so it will come down.
Creedmoor is 65 bucks a box at one shop here right now lol.....cant remember the loading but it wasnt even a "premium" option.
Thus, i wont be buying anything i have to find factory ammo for lol
 
Better than most other vendors.



Bronze Cerakote as well but yes, the camo stock is the main feature. It’s a cosmetic only option.
Huh that's interesting. Seems like me and @JmacD are alternative universe versions of each other as we seem to have opposite stuff, he finds a 7 PRC rifle, and no ammo, and I find a bunch of ammo and no rifle lol.
