I have handled & shot two soon to be three Horizon Venatic GT’s in 7PRC. Here is Mule deer killed at 340 yds with one. Also have handled a Fierce and two Christiansen’s but didn’t shoot them. Loading 162grELD -X with H1000 to 3040fps.

Reloder 26 with the 175’s will work well

Bought the Ruger American Wild Camo. Cool looking gun. Not the smoothest bolt out of the box but working on that. Grouped damn well on my first range session with the factory Hornady 175 ELDX. Recoil very manageable, I like it

You won’t like the recoil Buzz. Hey man the 7PRC is the largest caliber I’ve ever shot. It is not bad man come on. It’s 10 lbs more than a 270. It’s not terrible come on.
