260,
Good comment about just going to a bigger case. I have been leaning towards the PRC, but Mule Deer’s reprinted article with a 26” Ruger listed 120gr in the 3000+ fps range. So I decided to ask the question here. My thought is if several members here are getting that in 24” or 26” barrels, then I think it is worth giving the Creedmoor a try.
I have much better luck with short actions. I have M70 EW rifles in 30-06, 270, 308, and 7mm-08. The 308 and 7mm-08 are much easier to get fixed 6x42 scopes mounted to suit my eyes than the long actions. Our Redneck has made some negative comments on getting the PRC to feed well in the M70. I really respect his opinion so as much as I like the M70 EW short actions, I think that a Ruger LRH would be the way to go in PRC.
