Short or long, was wondering if it is being used yet and at what specs.

neck up the 6.5 PRC in a short action
neck down the 300 PRC in a long action
neck down the 300 PRC in a long action
the .30 PRC is based on the Ruger .375 case, not the 404, the 6.5 is based on the .375 ruger compact magnum.
I believe the rim diameter is different
Isn't that just a 7LRM..? 375 ruger necked to 7mm and shortened a hair?
A 6.5 PRC necked up could be interesting, like a 7-08 but a bit bigger.

I would be all over a 7mm using the maximum case length (with a long neck still) that you could from the .375 Ruger.
For that matter a 6.5 at max length based on that case would be pretty interesting too.
I was going to do a 7/300 but may just do a custom 7/.300 PRC if I can find a setup for it.

That would be a short action cartridge with it's own set of limitations on loading, length and barrel life.
One based off a full length 375 Ruger necked down would give you a lot more flexibility in both loads and projectiles in a long action cartridge
You're talking about a wildcat, I'm talking about an established commercial product you can choose to put in a long action and throat as long as you like.
In the long action what's wrong with the 7 Rem Mag? or any of the other 'magnum' 7mms? Whatever the 7mms have to offer have been thoroughly explored by the F-open guys. I would think thta a .310" long neck (SAUM) would be long enough to be versatile for seating long or short bullets of different weights.

Yet the sherman 7SS improves on this. Big time
Both 6.5 and 300 PRC have same rim diameter.

That is not in dispute.
Both have a different rim diameter than the 404 jeffries
the 7mm dakota is based on the 404 jeffries
