Yes i do, The recoil is similar to what a 300 Win Mag would be with brake or Suppressor and yes it’s easy to load.
There's only an 89 page thread about it. Tons of information and some extremely knowledgeable people to sift through.

300 PRC update
The 300 PRC, 30-375R, will be a cataloged item with SAMMI in the next two weeks. I don't know how long it will take them to add it to their website. Dave Manson has the specs and can make anyone a reamer.

just got back from a bear hunt. One was shot at 960 and the other at 630. I was impressed. Berger 215s.

can't wait to finish my build, that said the recoil in my savage 110 FCP HS Precision in its "as purchased new" form is a real pleasure to shoot. That OEM brake on the savage must be pretty darn good. I was expecting it to kick like my 7 mag does, but it was nearly identical to my savage axis in 7.62x39. That said the rifle is now in a chassis and heavier, have yet to get glass on it. Still a current build but i'm really excited about it. Ammo cost in factory loading is being gouged just about everywhere. If you shop local mom and pop paces who price honestly, it can still be had for $56ish a box of hornady 225g match. Everywhere else though is getting close to $100 a box. This is going to be the chambering i learn how to reload on. Really looking forward to it. No idea how the recoil feels without the brake though. As it sits it's nothing that would ever induce recoil flinch if you are used to any .30 cal hunting rifle.
OEM is how it was fired, no optic, no bipod attached, in its lightest possible form. 10 rounds fired, barrel swabbed between each shot except for the last two shot. Should help with initial zero
second photo is its current state as of today.
I really like the specs on the 300PRC.
(EDIT)
oem rail, Warne Skyline 34mm medium mount, Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 MOA
saving for, badger steel rail, Spuhr mount, Lupold MK5HD 5-25x56 MOA
photo is current setup

lol and i just had a guy in a local shop tell me that i would never see "long range" on a bear hunt. I bet that was a good time though. Can't wait to get my 300 PRC ready. I plan to do some traveling with it and get moose, elk, bear, and lots of culling of hogs.
