7PRC owners

[Caseknife]

I bought a 7prc this winter, opportunistic purchase at a good price so I decided to give it a whirl. I don't handload so I rely on factory ammo. Unfortunately the only factory loads with controlled expansion bullets that I could ever find in stock were the Hornady Outfitter 160 gr CX.....and my gun absolutely hated that load lol. I'd love to try the Barnes loads, or Federals terminal ascent, or Remington's CuT, etc, etc, but none of them are ever in stock. That rifle is currently having a 7 Rem Mag barrel spun onto it and all the above mentioned loads plus some others will be at my front door in 5-7 business days . I'm not hating on the merits of the PRC but it does not seem to be a currently viable option for those of us who rely on factory ammo.

Midway has lots of options for controlled expansion 7 PRC in stock.

Factory Hornaday Precision Hunter 175gr ELD-X
Suppressed Bergara Carbon Wilderness
Nightforce NX8 4-32 X50

Can't really complain with these results

Edit: had it zeroed just added the supressor. So changed POI 2.75" low and 2" right adjused that out to 1.75" high at 100. Factory calculator said 1.75 at 100yd will give me a 200yd zero. Shot it at 250yd and got this.



Have to show off the gun too.

Have shot the eldx's, some custom loaded 168gr lrx's, and now shoot factory 160gr lrx. So far the rifle like the 160's best and so do I. Added a suppressor and the groups at 200 are better than anything I've ever shot. Performance on game has been awesome as well

Would you mind sharing your load info for the 160’s?
