7 BC will be just like the 30 super carry or whatever it is called in a few years.

We were discussing the 7 PRC as under performing in velocity.
The 300 -7 mm PRC or other larger case would be one answer to the problem, which some shooters should consider.
But someone has to make the custom dies for these Wildcats like 300-7 mm PRC or similar too.
Some competition shooters have always been altering and wildcating cases for more exacting performance for their particular endeavor.
I do not consider extra cost of dies a problem, for just adding more case capacity, we've been doing so since the beginning of metallic cartridges. You have to pay a little extra for extra performance.
In the 7mm BC those are not excessive dangerous pressures, but standard operating pressure is 80,000 psi...it's where it is designed to operate and gets its extra velocity from.
The draw back there is I have to make reloading dies...not for the average reloader ...RCBS is supposed to be making dies.
Until then it's not for those who want to handload.
Bottom line if your happy with your 7 PRC's velocity, great, run it....
If you are disappointed in its low performance, as many are, not delivering what is stated on the cartridge box...
Then change to something that will deliver the velocity for "your" needs.
There are lots of 7mm cartridges to choose from, ...or make up your own.
Your choice...

Jesus fucking Christ can we please stay on topic? Nobody here gives a flying fuck about your hypersonic missile take it to Putin and see if he will buy it
I happen to look at the HODGDON website today and they are also listing the Max H1000 load with a 180 at 64 grains, with a state of pressure of 62,500 or so which is still below the max rated for the cartridge depending upon where you look
My own loads in two different guns are not getting pressure signs at 67.5 grains with a 180 loaded to 3.320 in Horty brass. The one good thing about using that brass is you know it will give up earlier so when I switched to LA PUA later this fall hopefullyI should be in good territory

Yup, I’ve got 190s that comfortably go 3025 over Retumbo in the sad sack 7PRC. The real answer to getting the best out of the 7PRC is using a long action so that you can seat the long heavies out where they belong. This gives room and drops pressure at better velocities for those seeking them.
For everyone else, pushing 180s at 2800 is plenty for taking down any game you’ll find.
My point to Mr. 45-90,000 I’m better at everything than anyone else, was that he has a consistent pattern of jumping into threads and then blabbing incessantly about a totally other cartridge and won’t shut up. He has no filter and no understanding of staying on topic. Nor does he care.
Plus he just cannot help but show off always and all the time that his choice is superior. As if anyone asked or cares about his bullshit.
