Picking up an axsr in the next day or two. I’m stuck on two calibers 300 prc or 300 Norma.
I’ll be shooting this out to 2200 yards or so but probably more like a mile to 2k most times.
I do reload although I’m not set up at the moment due to a recent move. I keep seeing data that shows them within 75 fps of each other. Then I’ll read where someone is getting 250 fps more with the Norma. Barrel life isn’t a major concern but if the 300 Norma is only marginally better is there any reason to use it? Components seem to be nearly double the price of the prc and brass harder to find.
To me this is the way I see it
300 prc
Good factory ammo
Cheaper
Easier to find brass
Norma
Better performance?
Having proper bolt face to move up to 33xc if I wanted
I don’t mind spending more if it really is worth it performance wise. Just want to get it right the first time. I appreciate the help.
