New to 300 PRC, advise?

1-9 is all you need. My Hvy 1K BR rifle is a 9.5 and loves 225 ELD-M's

I picked up some ADG brass and a box of the 212 eld-x to get the rifle sighted in and work up a load for practice/deer. For the some longer range loads should I skip the 225 eld-m and go to the Berger 230s? Or is that a Ford vs Chevy argument?

I have way better luck working up loads with berger 215 hybrids than 225 eldm

you forgot MOPAR

Not saying the 230's won't be accurate but there's a reason the military chose the 215's over the 230's for the 300 Norma Mag.

215 with 570 and Alex work with his reamer work, darn good for me

Any clues on your load data for the 225s?

Thanks

Moderate load of Rl-25. It wasn't fast, just accurate.

The 225 M work well in my 10 twist Lilja barreled hunting rifle. I could shoot them close to 3000 fps with RL 26 or Ramshot magnum. I wanted a mellow elk load to shoot with suppressor. This one works !

The phone call came! I picked up my rifle from the smith a few days ago. It looks great, he always does a great job for me. Also, I picked up some VV N570 the other day. I loaded up a handful of hornady 225s with it, that is some chunky stuff. I'll give the hornady bullets a try first, then if they aren't performing the way I hope I'll try some Berger 230s.
