[@monsterk7603]

I shot long range for my first time this week. My buddy threw me in the deep end and went straight to 1400 yards. Made contact on the 3rd shot. Best feeling ever! Especially since 300 yards was the farthest I had shot until then. Love your channel and content, bro. Keep it coming! \,,/

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Dude that’s epic! If you’ve got the fundamentals dialed in, then shooting 1400yde really isn’t that much different than 300 yds. Super cool you connected on the 3rd shot! Careful though…. Long range is addicting and it gets expensive fast haha

[@chrismuncey3861]

How does it compare to 1,000yrds. Everyone tells me 1 mile is a hole different experience.

[@Revolutionaph]

@@chrismuncey3861Honestly I found it almost easier. Probably cause I wasn’t expecting to hit anything haha. My dope from the Hornady app called for 17.9 Mils and I ended up at 15.6 mils of elevation so once we got that figured out it was pretty straight forward. Thankfully I have a 1,000 yard range on my property and shot the mile from the same spot up onto a hillside so am pretty comfortable with the environmentals of the area. Try it out sometime, it’s a lot of fun!

[@claytonjohnston25]

Congrats man!

[@loadmastergod1961]

Congrats! Last time I tried a mile was with my valkyrie out in Montana. I was hitting the ground about 400 yards shy whe. I fi ally got enough splash to see. Haha

[@puakoalii]

You nailed it on cost! I have both, the PRC is just much more economical to shoot and spending time behind the gun is what makes you better. Great video and summary.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

You know I fully expected to pretty much stop shooting 300prc when I got the 300bm barrel but that just isn’t the case. I like having both because the 300nm is an epic performer but for 95% of what I’m doing the 300prc just makes more sense.

[@puakoalii]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica I had the 300nm first, tried the 300prc just to check it out. I thought no way it competes with the Norma but found as you said the 300prc just made sense most of the time. Plus spending less makes the wife happy. I had a first round clean, cold bore hit at a mile with the prc last week on a 24’’ disc so I’m happy.

[@EasternMountainHunters]

I’ve shot 338 Lapua, 338 Norma, and 300 Norma and 300 PRC. The 300 PRC is just my favorite of all the larger magnums more economical and is an awesome performer. Plus it’s not super overbore like the 300 Norma. Better powder selections also.

[@DTreatz]

.300 win mag more economical though 😏 I'm sorry, im a poor 😂

[@rugerdogg5316]

Trying to jump into long range. I appreciate all the info and effort you put in your videos. I don't know anything about long range so your videos are helping tremendously! What I have heard all my life flat shooting is easier to put on target ,and wind is a huge factor. Still undecided.

[@fordvg]

Very good job with the video and I personally like the 300NM more and I don’t worry about factory ammo because I load my own unless the factory ammo is using the Peterson brass that I want and use. I shoot the 230 grs A-TIPS Match or Berger 215 grs Target Hybrids. Plus the 300NM is part of the MK22 package which is what I wanted for my own setup. 300NM with a 86.7 grs. per round from a 8 lbs jug of powder you get 645 rounds from 8 lbs of LRT

[@__Dave__]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica one thing I’ve been pondering is a way to test “precision firepower”, where at a given distance which caliber yields the most hits on target in a given timeframe. So at 500yds 5.56 gas probably wins out, but at 800 we’re probably looking at 6ARC taking over, then 6.5CM somewhere around 1k and 300prc past that. Idk just something I’ve been thinking about, where you balance external ballistics, ability to spot misses, gas vs bolt, etc to get the optimal caliber/platform combo for a given range and wind conditions. Just a thought. I live in WV so the max I can reliably see hilltop to hilltop is a half mile, so I built a 6ARC that I’m happy with for that distance.

[@timmcfarland3311]

Great video when I built my 30 caliber magnum I was stuck with a Remington 700 action so I did the 300 rum now to load that properly. It’s a single shot rifle because the cartridges are over 4 inches long. But with 33” barrel i got 3175 fps with 245 berger 3155 fps with 250 A-tip 3180 with cutting edge 240. Its a hammer. Between those I would pick the normal with 245 berger

[@mgriffin12]

I have a MRAD in 300WM and had been debating on my next barrel. These are exactly the 2 I was debating. Awesome video

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Hopefully this video gave you information to help make an informed decision. To sum it up…. I fully expected to pretty well stop shooting my prc when I got the nm barrel…. This just isn’t the case. I find myself going to the 300prc more than the nm for the reasons mentioned in the video.

[@BEARDSANDBARRETTS]

It was really awesome seeing the side by side comparison between the calibers. I will say I'm excited to really reach out and stretch my new 300PRC Barrel in my MRAD. Looking forward to posting my journey as well!

[@janvavra1333]

Very nice comparison, 100 % agreement with your conclussions. 300 Norma is a 2km caliber and it was designef for 230-250class of bullets (or198 flatlines). 300 prc is more 220-230 bullet class case.

[@seeratlasdtyria4584]

Damned this Kid is good (I'm OLD heheh) Hey, good catch on that bipod, I''ve seen more than a few 'good' shooters miss that when setting up on the ground. Let me say something about the wind's influence over undulating ground at range. Perhaps, it's easier to visualize if you imagine you're trying to row a canoe across a river. If the riverbed is flat and uniform, then the speed and direction that the water is flowing is likely to be reasonably close to uniform along your path, thus calculating your desired offset to get from where you start to where you want to land on the far bank is pretty straightforward. HOWEVER, imagine your river not only varies in depth, but in the nature of the riverbed below. As every fisherman, or in fact anyone who's taken the time to observe a series of rivers will have seen, the rougher the riverbed, the greater number and SIZE of eddies, whirlpools etc. Now imagine this river you're trying to cross is 1800 yards or so...and you should have an idea of why long distance shooting over terrain, and NOT a prepared range, are two entirely different things. Oh, bye the way, the physics fellas tell me that rivers are actually pretty much REALLY THICK/WET air " streams " and if you pay attention, you'll actually hear meteorologists describing "atmospheric rivers" hehe. One other thing, with this young man's demonstrative breathing, sighting, and trigger manipulation skills, I would want to take a fresh look over his hand loading procedures as I was expecting better uniformity of performance from these cartridges as I have a 'wee bit of experience' with the Norma one, a 'bit' more with its bigger brother .338 Norma, and substantially MORE than 'just a bit' with the older .338 Lapua (LM) ;) Note that I'm talking cartridge uniformity out of the muzzle, not projectile impact 1800 yards down range in that wind:) xlnt video call out to the Mullet 👍

[@AZMarine513]

NICE!! I have been researching this exact topic for a future extended range rifle setup.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Awesome! Hopefully you saw something in this video that can help you make an informed decision! Ultimately though…. You can’t really go wrong with either caliber.

[@CKprecision]

Cannot wait to watch this in the morning with my coffee. Love all of your videos brother.

[@mikedebear]

Really appreciate your thoughts on this- well considered and you make your evaluations with data and logic to support them. I was planning for a Norma rifle, but now I'm reconsidering since I am limited where I can shoot beyond 1500 yards (but really it's more down to skill haha). A 300 PRC is definitely going to get a hard look after this video.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

I think the best way for me to summarize my opinion is by saying I fully expected to park and potentially sell the 300PRC barrel once I got the 300NM barrel.... I was expecting the 300NM just to blow me away with how great it peforms. What I've found though is I'm shooting 300PRC just as much as I was before getting the NM barrel and I'm putting very few rounds through the NM. 300NM is an epic performer but for me the PRC does everything I need at a much lower price point and recoil level.

[@Jairyoku]

[@pilotincommand85]

Excellent video as usual! Looking to get into magnums and have decided to try and stay in the 30 cal range for suppressor reasons (so I don’t have to buy new cans for large caliber). Was pretty set on the PRC but you have really given me something to think about with the Norma…absolutely fantastic performance on that beast

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Oh man, if you're purely after the down range performance then I'd say 300NM without a doubt. As shown here it's pushing the higher BC heavier 250 ATIP at the same speed as the PRC is pushing the 230 ATIP making it a better performer at distance. Also in my experience, the PRC is really optimized for the 230 gr bullets.... I believe if you're wanting to go up to something like the 250s going to the NM is a requirement. That said though, I believe both calibers are epic performers. Thanks for the continued support!

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Oh man if you’re after the highest performance possible from 30 cal, 300NM is the ticket. That’s why I plan to keep this barrel around. Funny you mention 338NM… I’ve actually been thinking I’d sell my 338LM barrel and swap to 338NM. I’m thinking the case design of the 338NM will let me run longer bullets with a little more flexibility in seating depth than I can with the LM.

[@_droid]

Great shooting as usual! You can use a microphone "blimp" (best but expensive) or a "dead cat" to help block the wind noise. Use audio normalizing in your video editor so the volume doesn't go all over the place (there are digital wind noise filters there too but I've had mixed results).

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Great info, thank you for sharing! I actually filmed this video a couple of months ago and unfortunately at the time I didn’t realize that my microphone wasn’t working correctly.

Great video and always very informative I only wish would have compared both shooting preferably the 230s but even the 250s since you’re hand loading to get more of an apple for apple comparison and see how big of difference the higher velocities out of the NM made I do understand that these two weights made the velocities closer which is showing the advantage of higher weights and bc at basically the same velocity

Shoot nothing wrong with 300nm, it’s an awesome caliber and you won’t find me getting rid of my barrel! AI vs Barrett… that’s a can of worms I might open in a future video if I can get my hands on an ai…. Stay tuned!

[@imnobody7765]

300 prc and norma FUCKs hard i went with the norma because 300prc didn't exist when I was planning my build out, but the next gun long range is going to be a 300 prc.

[@Thejeff1911]

It would be cool to see your reloading process, especially for gas guns.

[@RitterRundown]

Like the video and the channel. Wish you could have loaded the same projo weight in each cartridge for a true head to head test.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Very fair feedback and in line with several other commenters. Part of the reason I like the NM is the ability to run the 250 class bullets with more velocity than the prc can… that said, I’m thinking I’ll revisit this down the road with a 230 load in each caliber…. Just need to work up a 230 load in the NM before I’m able to film and launch. Hope you’ll stay tuned!

[@RitterRundown]

Thanks for the reply. I'll definitely keep watching. Your videos and what you cover are top notch. Thanks for sharing with us.

I'd go with 300 Win Mag over 300 PRC or 300 Norna. The factory loadings in 300 Win Mag are nearly infinite and ammo can be found anywhere rifle ammo is sold for less than 300 PRC. The 300WM has VERY easy-to-find brass, too. It's still possible to push 230-grain Bergers out to 2000 yards with the proven, plentiful 300WM 🇺🇸

[@brisketbaron]

Yeah but 300 prc is out there in decent quantity and when ammo is scarce there’s going to be more ppl buying up the 300 win mag. Plus that ancient 300 win mag case design. But you’re right you’re much more likely to find 300 win mag at Walmart. Definitely a plus.

[@joelouden6592]

@@brisketbaron Anyone with a 300 Win Mag or a 338 Win Mag can always convert to 300 PRC with a barrel swap, too.

Great vid!

[@MichealJACKSON-ly6cd]

Building my 1st 300 prc off a christchensen action in a krg chassis with a proof ss barrel. I've been shooting 6.5cm out of a stock rpr then a white oak then a proof barrel for about 5 years. Wanting that Kinda accuracy in I 200 plus grain projectile. Seems doable Apparently your having no issues. The rpr vs barrett 300 video was crazy. I never thought the white oak or the proof barrel in my rpr were necessarily any more accurate than the factory which says a lot for the rpr.

[@jwoak0913]

I chose 300 PRC for those very reasons and it’s in my 11.2 lb hunting rifle. 🇺🇸

[@MontanaWild78]

Great video. I bet if your hand loads were dialed it would help but you still shot great. Impressive 👍

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Yeah I was a little disappointed at the velocity spreads I was seeing when I filmed this one. All good though… my mk22 can just got approved so I’ll need to rework my loads anyway to make sure they run well with the suppressor. I’ll see if I can get them dialed in a little better for the next time I film with these calibers.

[@MontanaWild78]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica You da man. My boss just bought a Fierce 7 PRC and I have a Bergara in 7 PRC and 300 PRC. We are going to have an employee shooting day and see what kind of hits we can get at longer ranges. We need to have you come up and show us how it’s done 👍 NW Montana

[@fordvg]

Graft and sons have the Hornady 250 grs A-Tips Match bullets for .94 a piece and if you want 5 boxes or more they are cheaper yet.

[@G5Hohn]

Standard magnum boltface vs 338LM bolt face. That seemingly small difference means you need a much larger and more expensive action in most cases. MRAD doesn’t matter, but many guns need significantly different actions so that yes, while the 300NM is faster and packs more punch, it means a much heavier and more expensive setup that is pretty hard on barrels compared to the PRC.

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Man this is a great point I even think about…. Had I not been running an mrad the NM would require much more cost in the action. I’m thinking I’ll revisit this video topic down the road with the same bullet weight in each caliber. I’ll try to work this commentary into that revisit as this is a great point that needs to be shared!

[@G5Hohn]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica I’m looking forward to it. Looking just at barreled action costs, you can put together a 300PRC on a Zermatt action for as little as $2000 or so with a prefit barrel. A 300NM barreled action will run you another $500+ just for the barreled action. MRAD is a more comprehensive package than just a lock, stock, and barrel kind of build, so of course it costs a bit more. That said, the PRC costs a lot less to run- the brass is much less, the barreled action is much less, the barrel life cost is much less, etc. So for me it’s not a case of the the NM being more capable- of course it is. To me it’s about whether that increase in capability is worth the big step up in cost.

[@MrCooper89]

​@G5Hohn Having an MRAD is way cooler than a generic bolt-gun. Plus the fact you can buy entirely different barrels and easily swap them just makes it more appealing. Barrett will even provide offers where you can buy barrels for around $900.

Great content!!

[@MountainsMulletsMerica]

Thank you! Really glad to hear you enjoyed watching this one!

[@MrMagoo321]

@@MountainsMulletsMerica the farthest range I can afford has 6" steel out to 300 so if I can't go long I'm going smaller! Sometimes that one sits sideways so then it's 3"-4". Got my elevation dialed inside the reticle by using the Nikon spot on app since I have an older Nikon scope. A lot of fun!!

[@magwamagwa45110]

If your aim is to get as good of information about how they stack up against each other then they should be shooting the same bullet apples to apples and at about the same speeds then and only then can you see effect of case , primer etc. Also I would true both calibers data and dial the solution the Impact gives you and use the center dot it is much more precise .
