We do need a dedicated. 300 Win Mag video, gentlemen.

The 300 prc is going to be my next long range target shooting rifle. Im hearing nothing but praises for this round.

These guys personalities makes them fun to watch laid back and genuine unlike most other youtubers and Ryan is probably the most knowledgeable guy about guns and bullets on the entire internet .....caliber talks are my favorite please do 12 guage caliber talk

The 300wm deserves a conversation for sure

I love this podcast! Podcast ideas for the future. 300 ham'r Big bore AR cartridges 458 socom & 50 beowulf 6.8 spc II An entire podcast series on AR cartridges typical and non typical Thanks again for the content guys and happy new year.

“Recoil sensitive since shoot a PRS Match.” You guys are hilarious to watch. I love the cartridge talks you all do.

Yes!! I love these cartridges talks!

The one thing that was forgotten in this talk is the twist rate from that factory. Faster twist spec vs other 30 cals is what makes it work better for the heavies. Also work noting, Lapua makes brass for this beast and the military is using the PRC to some extent.

Mucipedia's knowledge is profound.. I'll never get bored of these cartridge 10 minute talks, ever.

I love the 300 Win mag but once I started reloading I switched to the PRC and haven’t looked back. Not having to deal with the belt is huge. Also the throat design of the PRC is really intelligently done. I’m told you can get the accuracy of a handloaded cartridge out of a factory round.

Love this round, shoots great out of my HMR wilderness

A year and a half ago, Matt at CRS Firearms was doing specific builds. For example, he built and load tested a .243 for AP rounds. He had already talked about hunting rifles. His favorite to hunt with is his SCAR heavy, which is, of course, 7.62X51 mm NATO. Compact, easy to use, and certainly fine for the dense forests of the public hunting land that he now uses in Wisconsin (the c stands for Coloma.) So, he wanted to build a sniper rifle, something that could possibly be used by military. He had choices from .308 W and up. Originally, he had chosen .300 WM because it has already been used, very effective, ammo everywhere, nearly as ubiquitous as .308 W. He could not find the action he wanted. But he was able to get a .300 PRC action. So, he built a .300 PRC with a carbon fiber wrapped barrel. He had accuracy and performance problems that were frustrating and I think he eventually worked them out. First two shots would be great. Third shot would wander way off, like the scope moved or something else like that. Problems you normally only have with, say, a Mossberg Patriot in the factory synthetic stock. I can say that because I have 3 Mossberg pieces and one of them is a Patriot that performs so much better in the MDT chassis I put it in. And at the end of the day, would he hunt with it? No, and not just because it is purpose built for something different and he is not a long range hunter. It is so much recoil and it is a heavy rifle. Ironically, his SCAR heavy is lighter. I am sure everyone here knows the heavy description just means it is .308 W and not .223 Rem. It could be used for longer range and bigger game hunting. And if I felt the need to hunt with something more powerful than my lovely .308 rifles, I would likely go with a .300 WSM, like Mark and not because he uses it, although he is the one to give me exposure and insight into it. (Sorry for the run-on sentence.) It is, to me, a fat .308 W. A medium action rifle that is less influenced by the wind and a short enough rifle to be truly portable. I also see it in action at Rogee Productions, where they hunt in public land in New Zealand and there is no getting within 100 yards of the skiddish ungulates there. Most shots are a few hundred yards. It reminds me of the state drawn lottery hunts in my state where you can hunt mule deer. The description of the hunt and the area is to expect snow and ice (high desert) and shots of at least 200 yards (high desert, not a lot of trees.) Pretty much all still hunting. Would I change to .300 PRC for a 200 yard hunt? No. The factory load that I have has energy good to about 500 yards. That is plenty good, especially for the dense forests I hunt. But intellectually, it is a worthy pursuit.

how in the hell is this channel not booming? solid stuff every video Love it!!!

and yes please do the 300 win mag episode!!!

I was always a 300 win mag guy until the 300 PRC came out. Bigger bullets , better BC, more velocity with less kick.

Thanks for reviewing this guys

300 prc definitely is a modern cartridge, no reason to purchases any other large 30 caliber cartridge. Love your podcast keep asking good questions👍

Great cartridge, but I am still in love with the 300wsm. Happy new year 🎉 ✨ looking forward to more talks

I found a lot of 300 PRC on the shelves recently. Glad to start seeing ammo on the shelves.

Im drawn more to this cartridge more and more it had surprising performance

I have a Tundra 300 PRC made by Proof Research and love it!

Just picked up a Begara Premier HMR Pro in 300 PRC. Intentions are ELR (up to 2000y) and long range elk hunting. I can't wait to put it to the test

Love these podcasts, always a great time listening to all three of you. I was looking into getting a 30 cal magnum and was wondering what Mr. Ryan thinks of how the 300 PRC stands up to the 30 Nosler, especially the 212 ELD-X vs the 210 ABLR. And how they both would handle recoil while suppressed. Used to take elk up to 800 yards. Thank you.

Haha my first rifle was a 308 as a kid. Years of shooting it I laughed at the idea of going to any caliber for lighter recoil. I ended up getting a 6.5 creed and fell in love then after probably a year of neglecting my 308 I finally took her out and was shocked by the recoil! I had got so used to that creed that I forgot what 308 felt like

I’m planning to buy one, especially after this video it’s helped solidify my search for another big thirty.

I'm glad you did the 300prc love that design... please do the 10.3x68 as well

I enjoy using and completely trust my Parker Hale #1200 - 300 Win Mag. Where I live, a 500 yard shot is extremely rare to maximum due to thick forest. The long shots are usually taken in forest cut-over areas. And at 60 years old, I cannot see myself cashing out for the latest product. I can also get ammo almost anywhere for the 300WM. I would enjoy trying the 300PRC though.

I appreciated you guys making a 338 win mag video. That was great. Would you guys consider talking about what your caliber of choice would be for a specific type of game species or a specific type of hunt? Something in the lines of what caliber/cartridge you guys would use, what kind of ammo etc. I think it would be an awesome video. For me I like the 223 for varmints predators 270 for medium to potentially large game and the 338 win mag to cover anything that plans to eat me here in North America. No need for big 5 African hunting for me.

Thank you for your input on this cartridge. I have been debating it for a while now.

¡Best Title Ever! Love the 300PRC with 225gr.

The 300prc was best described from 3:00-3:30. The way that I describe my 300prc is it's a 300wm with all the chamber slop removed and a much longer neck to hold onto the long high BC bullets and not set them deep in the case. I'd say that the 300prc is 20% better than a 300wm today. When more factory ammo choices come to market I'd say that the 300prc would be 40% better than the 300wm. Thats not saying that the 300wm is a slouch or obsolete in any way. I love my model 70 in 300wm but my 300prc is more betterer 👍😉

Thanks for the .300 PRC!

1.) A bit more velocity than the .300 Win mag 2.) no "belt" for consistent headspace 3.)longer neck can handle long/heavy-for-caliber bullets 4.) Developed jointly by the US Army and Hornady for sniping. 5.) More efficient shoulder angle.

I forgot to mention Barrett Firearms New DoD Contracts Include MRADs in 300 PRC and Hornady to Supply 300 PRC Ammo to U.S. Department of Defense (they designated the 300PRC as their sniper rifle a few years ago) FWIW

I stopped by the Vortex showroom last week while in the area visiting family and picked up the same hat that Ryan is wearing. I actually saw Ryan talking to a customer and felt like I saw a celebrity! Lol

I smell a .300 WM video cookin... Finally! 🥰

Love this cartridge

Please do a ten minute talk on the 300 Savage, the original 300

Beautiful cartridge, new bullets, new powders make magnum cartridges, for hunting obsolete. Running staball behind a 212 in my 3006 at 2553 fps with a single digit SD and it shoots lights out, holding energy to take elk at any “ethical” range. My 300wm project sits in the safe, just don’t have a hunting need for it. Now a 300prc in a ruger precision would be a fun 1 mile gun.

The 300 win mag with a 1 in 8 twist barrel has been the Goldilocks for me: shoot 230 A-Tips at 2915fps or shoots $25 a box Remington Core-lokts in a pinch. Of course for non-hand loaders, the 300 PRC is a great option! That said,I don’t know many ELR shooters who don’t hand load hah

I wish there were more options for factory hunting loads, hand loading is great but if your flying somewhere and your ammo is lost 300PRC is not a “gas station cartridge” yet, for hunting I would still prefer 300WM just for how easy it is to find, for all other things 300PRC is better hands down in my opinion

Do a talk on the 7.92x33 Kurz. I think it would lead to a great discussion on the development of intermediate cartridges.

The one guy who knows everything. Should probably run the channel.

Any experience with starting loads and a lighter bullet So the cartridge could double as a whitetailed load Without the liability of a muscle break ?

You guys definitely need to do a video on the 300 win mag.

Keep these coming!

Wold love more cartridges like 6.5ss or any Sherman short stuff. Some real cool convos to be had

Love the 300PRC saving up for a savage elite in 300PRC… the Bagara HMR wilderness also comes in a 300 PRC

The good part about the 300 win mag is you can use a standerd action, a 300 wm with a 1-10 twist shoots a 208 grn, great, if you lengthen the throught you can shoot the same 250s a prc shoots , and in 35 years of reloading i have never had a problem with any of the belted magnums ( 264 or the 7mm or the 338 or my 375 h&h ackley )

I jumped in cheap with the under $700 Howa 1500 chambered in this potent projectile. The Hogue stock is already something I've grown accustomed to but I'll be trashing the cheap scope that came in the package and opt for better glass. I've yet to send anything downrange, but I've got nothing but high hopes jumping from a .308 Win platform.

I love this cartridge. I have a Howa 1500 light weight and those thing is a nail driver. I can load from 150 grain to 250 grain lots of options. Time and getting over this ammo shortage I believe lots of new options for loads. Reloads great.

Thank you 😊

Which is the better round for moose in open country that requires shooting at ranges of 400 - 600 yards? I was thinking the 300, but with the recent advent of the 7mm prc I wondered if it could do the job with the benefit of less recoil.

I have a 300 PRC and 6.5 PRC in Fierce CT Edge's. Dream to reload and a dream to shoot. Got rid of my 300 WM and 7mm Weatherby. Never going back to belted mags.

Could you achieve the same ballistics by using a 300wsm on a long action with more freebore and seat the same bullets out to the lands? I realize If running comparisons from factory vs factory the prc favors. But in my thoughts you could still achieve the same idea in a full custom WM or wsm chamber job

Just got my Howa Oryx. YHM R2. Zeiss V6 5-30. Hornady Match 225g (BC .78)… Hearing safe, mild recoil, supersonic to 1500! VERY happy with this combo!

Would love to see this revisited!

Great video, I’d love to see a 300 Norma 👍🏽

I'm very happy with my 300 PRC. So glad I chose it.

I love my Christensen Arms MPR in 300prc, light and very hard hitting with .308 recoil

277 wolverine! Love that 300 PRC.

Please do a talk on 10mm for taking in to the woods for protection! Thanks for the great video

Is there any ballistic differences in shooting a 300wsm bolt rifle X-bolt) compared to an automatic (BAR)? I've been trying to research this & I can't find any comparison! Thanks!!!

I love the 300 PRC..I shot it all yer in ELR.I did quite well for me being I was new to ELR..Not newto 1000 yards and 1200 yards though.I stsrted shooting the Hornady 225 ELD-Match but eventually went to Hornady 250gr A-Tip.It was going 2810 fps .It has a better BC thatn the 225gr. Thge 250gr A-Tip is a much better long range bullet. I recently rechambered my 300PRC rifle to 30 Sherman Magnum which is a much better round shooting the Hornady 250gr A-Tip. Its running about 150 FPS faster than my 30PRC was with same bullet.And if I get in a jam I can still shoot 300 PRC ammo in my 30 Sherman Magnum.

Ryan's comment sums it up for me. "At present, there aren't any bullet offerings in the cartridge that I like". I agree. The ELD-X may be nice for long range specific applications, but is not a good performer at closer ranger higher velocity impacts, perhaps such as a bull moose at 75 yards, or a bull elk close in the timber. I don't deliberately choose long range shots. I like to be prepared for any opportunity within reason. Nosler Accubonds or Partitions generally perform well out to 600 yards, with adequate velocity to expand while having integrity for any close range shot as well. Much the same as Ryan states as his preferred limit of 600 yards for hunting, I feel I can cover anything from the muzzle to 600 better with other cartridge and bullet options. If the ELD-X could handle high impacts better, maybe that could change things, but a lot of hunters are reporting penetration issues with the ELD-X up close.

So how is 300 prc felt recoil vs 6.5 creedmoor? I know I never feel recoil while hunting but I also want be able to practice with my hunting rifle, and have had multiple shoulder surgeries so I'm definitely recoil sensitive, after multiple rounds fired.

Would love to hear what Ryan has to say about the 212 lrx for the 300. It's a "bore rider" bullet and idk what that means. But the B.C. is high and it's a tough looking game bullet

Yet ANOTHER great podcast from Jim, Mark and the Muckapedia. What are the chances we get Ryan to talk about the 222 Remington along with the endearing, but dead, Triple Deuce Magnum?

Curious on your thoughts on the 300PRC vs the 28 Nosler for a dedicated high county elk gun. Burning out barrels aside, do you prefer the speed of the 28N to the couple extra grains in the PRC? What about the 30Nosler va the 300 PRC? No competition shooting or target shooting with this build. Just a lights out, long range, light(ish) hunting rifle for elk and moose in grizzly country ( but not hunting bears specifically)

My range partner has a 300PRC, had he has created some awesome loads for this cartridge. The guy is a balistics geek! We were doing some radar on one of his loads shooting out to 430y. He said the balistic energy at 430y from that particular 300PRC round is similar energy to that of a 30-06 at point blank... To which I responded (in a breathy whisper) fuuckk?!?! Also.. you guys touched on a military application.. I could be completely wrong here, and some please correct me if I am... The 300PRC approaches energy and velocity of a 338 lapua; is that a fair statement or a bit of a stretch, generally speaking?

You guys are awesome!

I am very much a PRC fan. I need a 6.5 PRC and quite possibly the 300 PRC

The 300PRC can also be thought of as smaller/faster as well. the 6mm and 6.5 offerings are smaller and faster for say 1000 yards but when you start talking 1mile or 2000 yards, this is the smaller/faster compared to say the 50BMG and 338 calibers and would have significantly cheaper and more comfortable to shoot.

Would love to see a 10 minute in the new 7mm PRC

I love my 300 prc… I have 245 Bergers zooming at 3025 out of my 26” barrel… so much power

I've heard rumors of a 7prc based off the 300prc cartridge. Is prc the future of long range? What makes it so special?

What do you guys think of the 6.5 PRC? As a hunting cartridge and as a military cartridge.

Would love a weatherby run down on what they do and which cartridges stand out above the others, the 6.5 rpm and 6.5 300 weatherby, maybe it’s full podcast there’s a lot to talk about! You guys are great though.. very much enjoy learning from you guys

In all honesty I'm not a fan of the 7.62mm/30cal family but if I was to buy anything in it, it would be the 300PRC... It really is a cool cartridge. I have a 6.5PRC and if they necked that up to a 7mm I'd buy that in a heartbeat. Great video as always keepem coming guys!!!

How about a episode on the nosler rounds fellas, love ya work

I would like to hear you guys compare this to the 300 Norma mag.

I run the 230 A-Tips out to 2400mtrs, beautifully precise to a mile, running it out at 3100fps with no issues.

How about a discussion on Nikon Optics,, love these caliber talks🍻

More facts - 300PRC is built off the 375 Ruger case, No belt, less magazine/feed/headspace issues Designed to seat heavy-for-caliber long bullets outside the case leaving more powder capacity than 300WM. Optimal case size for powder charges, keeping consistent powder column. 308 Norma case too large - inconsistent powder column stacking in uphill or downhill shooting scenarios. Enough ft/lbs at 1000yds to kill. Hornady was marketing it hard, keeping lots of brass out there... I studied and chose 300PRC. Very pleased with my Bergara HMR.

I’d love to see you guys do one on the .460 S&W magnum

PRC homie here....bought a Bergara B-14 in April and have been having a blast on steel out to 1k. Hornady 225 ELD-Ms provide serious gong-strike noise. Glorious noise!

Hoping the 300 Norma would get brought up against the prc. Thanks for the video though!

I vote for all the popular magnums. 7mm Rem. Mag, 300 Win. Mag, and 300/375 H&H Mag..... I've got 3 outa those 4 in my family yet I don't feel like I know enough about them.

There needs to be a Muckipedia Reloading Manual done by yall. Also shirts with Muckinisms on them. Guess there will be 3 new rifles for me now. 6 arc, 300prc and 6.5prc.

What Vortex Scope would you like to put on a hunting rifle in this 300 prc??

Love mine, Howa 1500 300 PRC. With 212 gr. This is a track driver. BUT you will need to get a good muzzle break to tame the recoil.

I have a ruger rpr 300 win mag. What parts do I need to convert it to 300 prc?

I would really like to see a 10 minute cartridge talk on the 416 ruger

For a second I thought we were finally getting a 300 savage talk.

I own a Tikka Arctic in 6.5 Creed. I would add a Tikka Arctic in 300 PRC to the collection in a heartbeat.

What barrel will last longer, 300 PRC or 338 Lapua Magnum?

very profesional show .

How this channel isn’t at 500k-1 mil subs is beyond me

i have one i really love it

Is there a rifle weight that is preferred for either hunting or benchrest shooting?
