It has more case capacity than the short, and is very similar to thr max. The 7mm Weatherby! It would have been nice had you included the bullet used, bullet weight and muzzle velocites, because as we both know these vary a great deal. The Precision Rifle Cartridge line is now broad enough that for many hunting uses, shooters will have a tough time deciding between the 6.5 PRC, 7 PRC, and 300 PRC. Every effective range calculation will, by its nature, be only a broad approximation. Im just looking at the brass for symptoms of being over-pressure, but sometimes those symptoms dont show up until a cartridge is significantly overpressure as could be measured by a computer. We carefully monitor the velocity until we see a significant increase (30-60 fps) which usually takes around 40 to 60 rounds. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Another limiting point is how well you judge distance. In fact, Aaron Davidson, CEO of Gunwerks, jokingly said that the new 7PRC is the 7LRM. It seems that the cartridge was designed to compress the load right at the point where youd reach pressure with these common powders. The parent case is the .308 Winchester with a narrowed neck that fits a .284 inch bullet on a .315 inch neck with a rimless, bottleneck case. Your email address will not be published. Unfortunately, the chronograph (Labradar) glitched out and didnt record all the velocities, but I did at least shoot the following two that were recorded. I really do like what you and your contributing crew are doing. If you throw a big rock, it puts a big hole in the ground, but doesn't go so far. I see yours has a suppressor. Love your channel and style. As long as its a standard long-action, you should be just fine putting a 7 PRC barrel on it. The 7mm Rem. Itll get tons of penetration and you could shoot that light of a bullet VERY fast. The other major factor is bullet availability. The 7 PRC has very slightly less case capacity than the 7mm Remington Magnum, but also has a twist rate and neck length capable of shooting much heavier bullets than are common in a 7 Mag. The only other company Ive seen with die sets is Whidden Gunworks. when doing ballistics for your 7mm Rem Magnum. Compare ballistics data on your favorite Winchester Ammunition rounds. Thats a dead whitetail deer out to 1200 yards lol. There are 100s of different 7mm Rem Mag factory ammunition loads and bullets to choose from in Shoot! Depending on bullet type and construction, the minimum expansion velocity for rifles falls between about 1300 and 2000 fps. Shots at game at 800 yards are extreme and should only be attempted by shooters that are using the right equipment, and have the coaching and preparation to positively make the shot. Your email address will not be published. Do you have any MV numbers from your 20. Load Swift's 150-grain Scirocco at 3,036 fps delivers outstanding terminal performance. Quick question the 7mm rem mag recoil is listed below the 7saum and 6.8 western in this table. I always run a suppressor would like to see 20 with suppressor vs 24 with break. Part of that preparation is understanding, in simple terms, the external ballistics of a typical long range shot. I think the biggest win for the PRC however is the factory support that the SAUM lacks. The maximum effective range of the 6.5 PRC for hunting is approximately 730 yards, at which distance many bullets will slow below 1,900 fps which can cause a bullet to fail to expand. Youtube is full of those videos. This information is provided to the shooter as well. This is usually about 1,900fps with most bullet designs. there are plenty of rifles capable of 1000 yards but if your looking for something that wont drop 10 ft there are better choices. Factory Savage 7mm rem mag 1000 yard video. Shortening the H&H case to a length of 2.500 inches, and using a 25-degree shoulder, the 7mm Remington Magnum has an overall cartridge length of 3.290 inches. You did not compare this cartridge to the 7mm RUM? As we examine the drop and deflection of a bullet it becomes apparent that BC and velocity are very important parameters for shooting at long range. Before SAAMI drawings of the 7 PRC were released, I fully expected the 7 PRC to follow the industry-wide trend of overbore hot-rod cartridges. The 7mm PRC is a new round designed for long-range shooting and big-game hunting. In general, a bullets maximum effective range is the distance at which it no longer travels fast enough to reliably expand when it hits a target. These guys have 7mm rem mags taking elk at 900+ yards. The 6.5 Creedmoor has long been known to cause damage to the International Space Station with errant shots. It is caused by the bullet aligning itself to the relative wind vector. We analyzed 6 different loads for each cartridge (the proper way to read that sentence is Jim sat at a computer for WEEKS putting data into very complicated Excel sheets) to come out with an average of what several common loads for each cartridge will accomplish. Hopefully more options than what the 6.8 Western. However, hunters who choose to use gear that does not meet this standard are often forced to either make an unethical shot or to pass up shot opportunities when the elk isnt turned the right way. How much velocity would I lose with that shorter barrel? Here are the ranges for a 190gr A-Tip Match in a 27in 7.21 Firebird at 3240fps: 1900fps: 1250yd Ive left comments but could use some advice. Sure, some experts have even gone beyond what we consider the max distance. The 7mm RUM is identical to a high performance race engine in every sense. I really want to compare recoils of suppressed rifles. Please let me know how it can be improved upon. Freedom is not free. At 500 yards the 7mm's ballistic advantage begins to matter with nearly 10 inches less drop than the .270, 6 inches less than the .300. Again, weight of the bullet plays a large role in bucking wind.

Look up bergerbullets.com. Jim Harmer is a host of the Backfire Youtube channel. The 7mm Precision Rifle Cartridge is a long-action centerfire rifle cartridge designed to shoot 180 grain bullets at 2,950 fps. Maybe you could do a future video on it? Thankyou for report off the 7mm PRC as I have been searching for since I saw the SAAMI specification. Thanks for all the research and compilation here, are you certain of the numbers here as in many cases your distance where bullet travels less than 1500 fps is shorter than that same calibres 1900 fps for example 6.5 PRC? Far shots start to need a lot of compensation for bullet drop and wind drift to make an ethical shot on a game animal. The following table compares the 7 PRC to several other cartridges using Hornadys Precision Hunter line of ammunition. Someone forgot the grand daddy of 7mm mags! Required fields are marked *. I'd throw a link in, but i don't know how from an iPhone. My prediction? Everything was sub 1/2 moa from 59.5 to 62 grains. The .204 ruger for varmints, 6.5 prc for deer and elk but also moose, then the daddy of short mags the 300wsm which can really handle elk moose and brown bears. Decreasing wind deflection is a very important part of precise long range shooting. (They are the only company that has any 7PRC brass that I know of. Backfire LLC owns and operates this website. I appreciate this information. Where can I get 7 PRC brass?

For example, having 1,500 ft-lbs of energy to kill a bull elk is a decent barometer, but elk have also been killed with far less energy when excellent shot placement and good bullet construction are in play. Not being a downer on innovation, but 7mm STW is made by a lot more manufacturers than I see 7mm PRiCey ever being made by. Figure 1. (888) 223-3006 Load development: This process includes the fine tuning of bullet seating depth and powder charge in order to achieve the best precision possible for the rifle. So, the crosswind velocity and the bullet's time of flight will determine how much it is deflected in the wind. Bullet Weight: 140 gr Initial Velocity: 3130 fps Sight Height : 1.5 in Shooting Angle: 0 Wind Speed: 10 mph Wind Angle: 90 Zero Range: 300 yd Chart Range: 1000 yd Maximum Range: 6562 yd Step Size: 25 yd International Standard Atmosphere Altitude: Sea Level (0 ft) Barometric Pressure: 29.92 Hg Temperature: 59 F Relative Humidity: 50% Figure 2.

Any suggestions? *Casing image above is an artist rendering and not a real photo of 7mm Remington Magnum Ballistics cartridge. If it performs like my 6.5 PRC and 300 PRC, Im guessing it will be a winner too. The pistol bullet will slow down much faster, see Figure 2. In fact, Id guess that 60% of the new hunting rifles in most gun stores today are chambered in a cartridge designed by Hornady. But, you dont want to get too close to that minimum expansion velocity. Hi Jim, Thread starter redneck watchdog; Start date Dec 8, 2011; Help Support Long Range Hunting Forum Become a supporting member. I actually found RCBS to have the dies. John B. I really enjoy every bit from Income School! We know the grain is different but that's as close as we could get with the Winchester Silvertips. rating at 4,200 fps, it would miss.

I have an m70 classic with a 26 Brux barrel. I keep watching to see everyones long term thoughts and hunting performance. A good laser rangefinder is a tool, and if it isn't used properly it won't yield good results. I have two bags of W-W virgin brass and enough multi-fired brass to last me the rest of my life. After that velocity diminishes very quickly. First know Im a disabled hunter who is in my early 60s, I have a spinal issue from an accident and just had shoulder surgery, I cant walk far anymore. You want to take full advantage of this cartridges ballistic potential. We develop the ideal load for your rifle that is tailored specific to your requirements, hunting or target. To me its in the Goldilocks zone. Let's compare the amount of wind deflection for two different bullet's launched at 3000 fps MV. same principal applies to bullets. 7mm Ballistics Examined For this ballistics demonstration we are using Norma 150gr Scirocco with a muzzle velocity of 3117fps and a ballistic coefficient of 0.536. So please keep letting us know how it works for you. I dont like playing games of how far can I go and minimum bullet energy. Important Note: This is anecdotal testing. Obviously Hornady makes dies for the 7 PRC, but I personally am not a fan of their dies. Point blank range is 302 yards. Thanks, Jake.

Ive been working with some pre-production brass that isnt very good. Its certainly true that bullet/load selection will make a big difference. Using a 30 Bartlein barrel, Manson reamer, RCC brass, and wanted to do some comparisons to your results. Thank you. The amount of wind deflection is basically determined by how large the drag forces are and how long those forces act on the bullet. I saw the BIG ballistics spreadsheet on your youtube videos, you should share that. H1000 ran out of space for powder before I reached max velocity. But, I shoot a 195 EOL with a 1:9.5 twist out of a weatherby vanguard 7mm Rem Mag. Guessing and sighter shots have no place in todays hunting ethic.

This is using CCI Large Magnum primers, and shooting out of a 24 test barrel. I have a table showing the highest BC 7mm bullets, but here are a few bullets likely to be popular in the 7mm PRC: Below are the specified twist rates for many similar cartridges to the 7 PRC. Because of the nature of the bullet's shape and its performance through the air, changing Air Densities can have a large effect at long range. In this post, well look in-depth into that question. Matt. The Barnes bullet loses velocity at twice the rate of the VLD! This is averaging several different loads to get these numbers for each cartridge, so we can compare apples-to-apples, but youre right that with ALL cartridges you could go up or down slightly depending on the load selection. So, you definitely need a long-range bullet for most longer shots. I quickly saw that the 4 fewer grains of case capacity in the 7 PRC made these powders not ideal. Leave nothing to chance, because great things dont happen on accident. I have the 6.5 PRC and 300 PRC, and Im sure a 7mm PRC will be in my future. I feel it will offer the best velocity in a shorter barrel. Just imagine a long slender VLD bullet compared to a flat nosed semi wad cutter. Well, that would limit most hunting rifles to between 150 and 400-yards. Still a cool round for someone first using a .284 round. I guess the 7mm WSM is dead. Very well done. Love the Channel!!! Ok went out with new 7 PRC rifle. It is a great investment if you want to get into long range shooting and will be especially useful if you handload. Id love to see it. To do load development before this speed up happens will render the load development useless. NEED ADVICE!!! How much does the system you made weigh? Jim, I enjoy that you use your platform to provide reliable data to ethically take animals. Couple questions for you. The aim ballistically for Hornady with the 7mm PRC, is for a cartridge that will fire a 180gr 7mm bullet at around 2950 to 3000fps. No visible pressure signs, but likely overpressure. .270 Winchester Short Magnum, .30 M1 Carbine, .300 H&H Magnum, .25-06 Remington, .284 Winchester, .224 Weatherby Magnum, 7x57mm Mauser, .250 Savage, .405 Winchester, .45 Colt (often called .45 Long Colt), .375 Dakota, .375 Remington Ultra Magnum, 6.5mm Remington Magnum, .500 Smith & Wesson Special, .375 Holland & Holland Magnum.

A good marksman will not squeeze the trigger unless he believes it will work. Loris: 50 inch would be uncommonly long. This 7mm Remington Magnum ballistics chart shows 140 grain Trophy Copper rounds with a 100 yard zero: This 7mm Rem Magnum ballistic chart shows 175 grain Fusion Rifle rounds with a 100 yard zero: Remington: This 7mm Rem Mag ballistic table shows 175 grain Core-Lokt rounds with a 100 yard zero: The specified twist rate for each cartridge dramatically impacts the ability for a firearm to spin a bullet fast enough to stabilize a long bullet in flight. But, everything has to be perfect for it to work. Can someone help me with a MOA ( 4 clicks for 1" ) drop chart for my 7MM Rem Mag? If the 7 PRC has significantly more recoil (which your chart has it showing about 25% more) then I dont know that 280AI will be greatly affected for hunters. However, why was the 8mm Mauser left out of this comparison? Wind deflection, or drift as we usually refer to it, does not occur from wind blowing on the side of the bullet. The challenge of loading for any of the PRC cartridges is the extremely tight tolerances. Cartridge Type: RifleHeight: 2.5"Width: 0.532"Average FPS: 3024Average Energy: 3106Average Gr: 153Recoil: 2.06Power Rank: 4.63 of 20.

Perhaps my hunting rifle and bullet combo are capable of shooting 550-yards. JavaScript is disabled. You have to find the right balance of weight and aerodynamics. In fact, it may be about the best choice on the market for my personal preference. The benefit was a hot shower and soft bed every night! The second is errors in ranging and wind doping. lb Muzzle Velocity ft/sec. They show how a 7mm with a 168 Berger has more energy down range than a 30-378 weatherby with a Barnes. Rifle Type Both the 7mm Rem Mag and the .300 Win Mag are only chambered in standard/long action rifles. If you check Hornadys load data it shows N560 for every bullet except the 190. Shot placement, bullet construction, and animal individuality will all dramatically impact the effectiveness of the bullet. Ive constructed a similar table that takes into account bullet construction, including expansion ratios and weight retention over time, and Id be curious to get your opinion on it. 7 PRC is designed for shorter barrels. It is intended for long-range shooting due to its ability to utilize high BC bullets, and is also uniquely suited for hunting large animals such as elk. The higher the number, the better down range velocity retention. This streamlined, long 0.284 bullet cuts through the atmosphere with minimal drag effect, thus retaining velocity and energy far downrange (as you can see from the graph). Thanks for all the helpful info on the 7PRC. All Rights Reserved. Most people will like 22, but I like em short! I just finished my 7saummight need to do an identical build but in 7prc and compare.

Mainly, because of our inability to directly quantify wind speed and direction as we can with distance when using a rangefinder. This should get me real close when I go to shoot. Im sure we both understand youre trying to reach hunters and shooters of all levels, and you dont want to overload everyone with too much data. And shoot 168 Barnes tipped triple shock bullets along with Berger VLD at same weight and load. Im still using the same 24 test barrel by Preferred Barrel Blanks for this cartridge. For over 70 years Sierra Bullets has been dedicated to the manufacture of the most accurate bullets in the world. That can easily make my practical distance come down to 250-yards. Given Hornadys target load of 180gr at 2,950fps, this is likely a max load. I am alarmed at the number of proponents of long range shooting technology that simply ignore the effect of wind, and have no provision to compensate in their equipment. I do reload and my rifle seams to like 70 grains. George Holt. An inch is no big deal even if you're shooting squirrels in the head. 7 PRC looks like the best large deer caliber. We all understand how gravity works, and with the additional corrections for atmospheric conditions, a bullet's drop is easily calculated. But I have heard it can be a 1K gun. Ok but im kind of confused with a heavier bullet wouldnt it just drop faster??? These are Altitude (basically, Pressure), and Air Temperature. with 50 inch barrel. What we have here is failure- to communicate. This is for academic purposes only. Policy. Why no newer cartridges? Centerfire Handgun. You might be able to measure with a data meter the speed and direction at your location, but the wind is very likely doing something entirely different at mid-range, or at the target. RCC brass is the only place that has it, but the prices are wild at $6 per piece. You can find an email form and contact information here. Sorry man, wasn't going after anyone, it's a hotly contested issue around the guys I run with, guess i just assumed it would be here too. burning 61 grains Reloder 22 Recoil: 26.5 ft-lbs at 14.6 fps velocity Muzzle Energy: 3,269 ft-lbs Maximum Pressure: 61,000 psi MPBR: 365 yards (Zero at 307 yards, 3.9" high at 100 yards) These are some impressive numbers. Download Shoot! It's like these other guys said, if you throw a small rock it goes really fast, but not very far. They use Berger 168 gr VLD (Very Low Drag) bullets.
