In this episode of The Big Game Hunting Podcast, host John McAdams discusses the 7mm PRC vs 7mm Rem Mag. John conducts a deep dive on both cartridges, tackles complaints about the 7mm PRC falling short of advertised velocities, and even shares how hit probabilities at extended range change when switching between different loads for these cartridges. John also shares a few hunting stories accumulated in his quest to take game with as many 7mm PRC factory loads as possible. John's takeaway? The 7mm PRC is a refinement of the 7mm magnum concept that offers undeniable advantages over the 7mm Remington Magnum. However, the older 7mm Rem Mag is still a solid performer and holds its own surprisingly well against the newcomer.

Hornady unveiled the 7mm Precision Rifle Cartridge in October or 2022 and that cartridge has taken the hunting world by storm since then. I've hunted with and shot the 7mm PRC pretty extensively over the past year. While I really like the cartridge and have been pleased with how it has performed overall, the 7mm PRC is not perfect and some disturbing issues have cropped up with it recently. Here's the good, the bad, and the ugly about the 7mm PRC after just over one year on the market. The Big Game Hunting Podcast is about to celebrate its 5 year anniversary!

This episode compares the hot new 7mm PRC with the tried-and-true 7mm Rem Mag, and to a lesser extent the 28 Nosler. We discuss whether the 7mm PRC provides a practical advantage, and consider the type of shooter and hunter that will benefit from the 7mm PRC vs. the 7mm Rem Mag. Ballistic performance, suitable bullets, custom rifles vs. off-the-shelf rifles, factory ammo vs. tuned handloads... all are considered.  About 30 minutes in, the topic turns to terminal bullet performance, with an emphasis on the advantages of super-accurate match-type bullets vs. tough, deep-penetrating bullets for hunting. Scenarios where both can prove to be the deciding factor at the moment of truth are outlined. The duplex load concept, which provides hunters maximum capability both up close and far away is detailed. Finally, do-all bullets that span the spectrum of potential needs are discussed.  ENJOY!    FRIENDS, PLEASE SUPPORT THE PODCAST!  Join the Backcountry Hunting Podcast tribe and get access to all our bonus material on www.patreon.com/backcountry VISIT OUR SPONSORS HERE:  www.onxmaps.com www.silencercentral.com https://www.portersfirearms.com/ www.browning.com www.barnesbullets.com www.timneytriggers.com www.leupold.com www.siembidacustomknives.com https://javelinbipod.com  

Aaron, Landon & Neal Introduce the new 7 PRC cartridge from Hornady. They discuss specs and ballistic performance and compare it to the variety of  popul ar 7mm cartridges including the 7 SAUM, 7 Rem Mag, 7 LRM and 28 Nosler. Aaron recounts the history of the introduction of the Gunwerks 7 LRM and its relation to the eventual introduction of the 7 PRC, comparing and contrasting the two and answering a variety of questions on peoples' minds regarding the new 7mm offering and its applications.

7mm-caliber cartridges are capable of taking any hooved, non-dangerous game in the world—as long as they're paired with the right bullet. This episode takes a deep dive into the 7mm world, from the historic 7x57 Mauser that started it all up through the cutting-edge modern "sevens." Focus is on how to get the best-possible performance out of your 7mm cartridge, whatever it might be. We use the following criteria:  Intended use (game type and anticipated shot distance) Big game. Elk up through moose & bison Deer-size game Short shots in timber (tough, deep penetrators) Long shots (accurate, highly aerodynamic projectiles) Cartridge capacity (propellant, which equals velocity) Three categories of cartridge 28 Nosler 7mm Rem Mag .280 Ackley 7mm SAUM 7x57 Mauser 7mm-08 Rem Rifling twist rate 1:9.5, 1:9, and the oh-so-useful 1:8/1:8.5s Barrel length For maximum velocity For use with a suppressor Accuracy in short vs. long barrels Rifle weight Pros & cons of rifle weight Shooter recoil sensitivity Maximizing rifle shootability Final thought: Hunt the world with a 7mm.

Both the 7mm Rem Mag and the 300 Win Mag probably are among the first cartridges that spring to mind for hunters thinking about buying a new rifle for a serious hunt they think they’ll need a real heavy hitter on. They're both excellent cartridges and are similar in many ways, but they're also different in a few key areas and each is best suited for particular situations. Here's a detailed breakdown of the history, strengths, and weaknesses of each cartridge as well as recommendations on which one you should be use for specific hunting conditions.
