Who is doing a 338PRC? - 07/18/23
Now that the 300 PRC has achieved a reasonable following, it is probably time to fill the niche that Ruger left unfilled. Ruger case with .338" for 340 Weatherby ballistics in a standard length action or in a magnum-length action with extra long bullets.
The 375 Ruger case is a great starting point and the 338 is a delightful caliber for long-range bullets in reasonably lightweight rifles for game 400 pounds and up.
The shoulder should be set back a little for the 338. At least a caliber-length neck would be useful with the longer bullets.
An 8"-9" twist would allow shooting some of the longer monometals like Hammer and others are producing.
