This bullet was designed and optimized for the 7mm PRC with a 3.40" magazine, the 7mm SAUM with a 3.00" magazine, and the 28 Nosler with a 3.62" magazine. With a SAAMI reamed throat, all scenarios will touch the lands just shy of their respective maximum magazine lengths listed above.
Its extremely high BC and excellent low velocity terminal performance make it a perfect option for dedicated long range rigs. Furthermore, it's relatively light weight offers higher starting muzzle velocities and shortened flight times reducing movement of game after the shot and overall felt recoil when compared to some of the heavier options made for these faster twist rates.
This bullet is a true point blank to long range bullet in all scenarios for the 7mm PRC, 7mm SAUM, 28 Nosler, and many other fast twist .284" cal rifles.
