Overview of 300 PRC Ammo
300 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) is Hornady's modern long-range .30 caliber magnum. It is built to fire long, heavy, high-BC bullets, usually 190 to 225 grains, at around 2,800 to 2,900 fps from a magazine-length cartridge. That makes it one of the best choices for elk, moose, and other big game at extended range, and for extreme long-range target shooting.
300 PRC requires a magnum-length action. For a classic .30 caliber magnum with wider ammo selection, see our 300 Win Mag ammo, and for a short-action option, 300 WSM.

Frequently Asked Questions
300 PRC vs 300 Win Mag: which is better?
300 PRC is designed around heavy, high-BC bullets seated to magazine length, so it holds velocity and resists wind better at long range. 300 Win Mag is slightly faster with lighter bullets and has far wider ammunition availability. For extreme long-range shooting, 300 PRC has the edge.
Is 300 PRC good for elk?
Yes. 300 PRC is an excellent elk cartridge, carrying heavy bullets with plenty of energy at long range. A bonded or copper bullet like Federal Terminal Ascent 210gr or Hornady 190gr CX is a strong choice. Check your state's hunting regulations.
Does 300 PRC need a long action?
Yes. 300 PRC requires a magnum-length action and a barrel with a fast enough twist, usually 1:9 or 1:8.5, to stabilize its long, heavy bullets.
More About 300 PRC Ammo
Hornady introduced 300 PRC in 2018, building on the success of 6.5 PRC and the design philosophy behind the Creedmoor cartridges. Instead of maximizing velocity, Hornady designed the case so long, heavy bullets could be seated without crowding the powder or exceeding magazine length.
The result caught on quickly with long-range competitors and with hunters who want a modern magnum built for long-range shots on big game. Rifles are now offered by Ruger, Bergara, Christensen Arms, Tikka, and others.
