7mm PRC

I've seen some rumors swirling on other sites about a new SAAMI standard 7mm PRC cartridge rollout in the near future. Didn't see a thread on the topic here, so I figured I'd start one as a place to collect rumors, news and eventually load data once it's introduced.

I'm interested to hear what folks have heard, but from reading what little is out there, the consensus of rumors seems to be that the 7mm PRC is:
- Another Hornady introduction.
- A long action cartridge ased on a necked down (and maybe shortened a bit) .300 PRC.
- Slated for a fall introduction.
- Possibly similar to or even a straight standardization of the 7mm LRM.
- SAAMI standardized but not yet published.

Not sure who this guy is, but saw on another forum that he claims to have had some conversations with pew pew industry folks on he 7mm PRC (~14:20)

Looking at the new cartridge section of the SAAMI website, it looks like new cartridge publications seem to come out quarterly (mid-Jan, mid-June, mid-Sept, etc) so if the cartridge really is almost ready to launch, maybe we'll see prints come out in June?

I've been planning a new elk rifle for a while, oscillating between 7mm SAUM, .280 AI, and .300 WSM. If this 7mm PRC turns out to be real, and is Intro'd and supported in standard Hornady style, it might be just what I'm looking for.

Some of you guys are in for a surprise

Listen,

I have been working hard, granted mainly behind the scenes to improve the user experience and how this site runs overall, then in-between that and my classes, I have been working to bring you new content as fast as I can. So busy is a word, distracted as to what is going on day to day here is a bit more accurate.

So 2 weeks ago I was in Georgia and during my travels I get some emails and text messages about a paid sponsor on here having a major customer service issue. I take a cursory look, it's a mess, I delete the post and then all hell breaks loose. I get a call from the company, I get an unsolicited call from the member (which I absolutely hate) and I go in and restore everything. I talk to them, I talk to him, I figure it's all sorted out. Sure the sides have issues, and to be perfectly frank, I am not 100% buying the customer's story, but you have to entertain it enough to make it right. Apparently those attempts to make it right were not enough for you all.

Playing team sports to burn a sponsor down is not gonna fly, and bunch of long time members and big talkers are in for a 2 week break. Especially the ones that decided to follow the sponsor to other forums and make sure the fire jumped to those fields too. Bad move, and I will absolutely toss a few over it. And DAN you are the biggest piece of shit in all this, you won't leave, you won't shut the fuck up, and all you do is act like a troll here. We ban every account and all you do is make more. All you guys who follow this fucking asshole down the hell hole will have nobody to blame but yourself. You're not the only one, but you're definitely the most consistent asshole on this site.

Why the fuck would you attempt too wreck a company in this day and age ? I can understand it if the fck up revolves around theft, or plain old scumbag actions one after another, but the guys here are trying to make it right. They stand toe to toe saying we screwed up, we are sorry, this situation got slid around the bloc in a bad way, but it's not the end of the world. Ask yourself this, you have a barrel chambered and threaded, you don't install the barrel on to the action, but send it to the customer, who then installs it himself and the action threads get damaged... Hmm, he claimed to hand tighten it but he also told them he put a wrench on it. That part was not repeated here, Sounds mighty suspect in my reading. But sure the resulting attempts to fix the issue created a secondary issue which they admitted was a fuck up. They apologized and moved to make it right. It was a case of 3 side at the shop, a misunderstanding regarding the actions to remedy the problem, it happens, the result was outta line.

No after everyone moved to make it right, you all started a 6 page dog pile.... really. This is a company, who employs people, in an age where the Gun Industry is under attack. You guys in the cheap seats have no clue what companies are doing to us every single day. The threats, the removals, the increased hoops we have to jump through to be considered "moral" in their eyes. They do a metric ton of evil shit on the backside to us, and here a company thinks it has a safe haven and you all just dog pile on them. Every mistake they acknowledge and the even spelled out how the mistake happened and how they plan to fix it moving forward. Then, nothing but Shit from you guys. Do you think I voluntary wanted to put an age disclaimer on this site, fuck no, they make me to in order to send emails out, without no mail server. In fact I have to mask my actions on much as possible in order to survive, all it takes is some asshole DNC flunky with a hard on to shut you down today. It has almost happened more times than I can count. They will lie and say they got an email with porn or dead animals from the site to close us down.

it's so not cool, I am trying to build this place to be a nice little safe haven and all you do is make the site look bad. You don't think the other companies in the industry look this shit and go, "fuck no" I am not swimming in that pond. Fuck no, we were not supporting that community after what they did to A, B, and now C... you don't think they are talking or working together and say, holy shit did you see what SH did to X, Y, and Z, fuck that place... cause it happens every time you pull this bullshit.

I am courting companies trying to get deals, I was working for the last month trying to get companies back here, group buys, custom made options for you all, reduced costs, spelling out all the benefits, and then boom, what about that situation... they don't like and it and if you ran a business you wouldn't either. No different than running any service industry, you have Good Customers and Bad Customers, and I am firm believer in removing my bad customers. I am not interested in reforming the attitudes, not worth it, Dan is the perfect example, he has taken every advantage and we let him stay and he fucks us in the ass every chance he gets. We remove him, he makes a new account. We remove that, discourage, he changes emails and new account. He is everything wrong with the internet and some of you follow him blindly down the hellhole to shit on everything HE doesn't like or deem worthy. You can't just walk away and say nothing, it's more fun to dogpile. Which when warranted, I am all about, I will push an issue as far as I can, but I am smarter than you all by knowing where, when and what is appropriate.

Seriously over it, and I am going back to taxing some of your asses, once I determine the biggest offenders who had no dog in the fight, but could not let it go, banned. Once I get the names of those who followed the company to LRH, (you use the same names), banned... I don't give a fuck how much you talk on here, how popular you are, banned. History has proven you will be immediately replaced and while some might be missed, it's usually because they became the butt of joke here. Completely had it with some of you. You are not wrecking this place because you think you are better than everyone else or that you have a clue how things are supposed to be.

Some of you fuckers can ruin a wet dream.

So.....tornado and stuff

There was a tornado here yesterday about 1/4 mile north of my humble abode.
It was kinda breezy a bit, it's Kansas so we don't make too much ado about a little wind here and there.
Then there was the baseball size hail, that I can do without.
Fucked my truck over pretty good just like the old monkey with a ballpeen hammer dealio....luckily no broken windows on it.
My next door neighbor has this newer Jeep (pronounced hispanic "Heap") the one with the de-smell engine.....it is absolutely destroyed, huge dents and a broken out rear window.....and the tree that's now resting on it.....haven't heard a chainsaw yet.
Power was out for about 8-10 hours or so, was starting to worry about the fridge and freezer stuff.....but it seems OK for now.

Weather can sure suck some serious ass out of a dead and bloated donkey sometimes.

MR762/MR308 Precision Shooting - Show Your Groups?

What has been your experience with the H&K Rifles, and what kind of accuracy and distance are you getting with them?

I wished to start a thread showcasing various distances and precision of the Heckler & Koch MR762 (US) and MR308 (Europe) or, if possible, those who have access the M110A1 CSASS/SDMR. I have about a year on this platform, and have worked hard testing factory loads. I have an extensive writeup on this platform on HKPro HERE but, I wish to focus specifically other's extensive expertise of precision and long distance shooters here.

For those who respond with their own shot groups, please share the following:
1) Which Rifle? (MR762, MR308, M110A1, G28, G27)
2) What Barrel Profile? (Barrel Length, Heavy or Medium Contour)
3) What round used?

Included are some of my best groupings. Both rifles I run are Heavy Contour 1:11 Twist 16.5" Barrels. DOPE is as identical as they can get with the two. For the tightest groups, they seem to love the Hornady TAP ELD AR 168gr. Running the Federal Berger 185gr Juggernaut has been a laser beam out to distance. I plan on reporting more as I train and compete more with these two.

I rarely post, but I hope I can be more active here as I get out and shoot more. Thanks for indulging me.

Remington 700 40X clip slot service

First post after lurking for almost 4 years. I have a remington 700 set up for NRA high power/CMP 3 position shooting. The last thing I need to do is set it up for the mandatory reload. The obvious answer is detachable bottom metal but its a 700 with irons. I'm going for maximum struggle. I'm looking for someone that can clip slot my rifle like a 40x. I called LRI and they only do the scope base "clip slot" but might be able to do the 40x. They have no time frame because they would be starting from scratch. I don't mind waiting if there's no other options. I know good gun work takes time. I looked on the GA precision website because I remember it being on their list of services but if it was it's not there anymore. I plan to call them tomorrow. Google/the search bar only bring up references to calling LRI, other scope base clone services, and bolt on stripper clip guides that have gone the way of the dodo. I figure this is more of a vintage clone problem so I'm asking it here. If there's anyone else that offers what I need I would greatly appreciate a name or contact info. Thanks.
