Amazing long-range performance! Surprisingly agreeable recoil! The ability to harvest *any* American game! The 7mm PRC is truly a king among hunting cartridges – but only when it is loaded correctly, and armed with an exceptional bullet.
Hornady certainly knows how to load a cartridge of their own invention. And they outfit it with a truly outstanding bullet as well: the Super Shock Tip, which couples accuracy and authoritative stopping power in a tidy 154 grain package.
The Super Shock Tip is aerodynamic front, middle and back. It meets the air with a sharp polymer tip (not the Heat Shield, but still a very good one). It lets air slide smoothly against its secant ogive jacket profile. Finally, it lets air flow cleanly off its boat tail. The whole shebang is so effective that the SST attains a soaring-high .545 G1 BC, and follows this trajectory upon clearing a 24” barrel: 0yds: -1.5” → 200yds: 9.1” → 400yds: 0.0” → 600yds: -34.6” → 800yds: -103.0” → 1000yds: -217.0”
The SST gets quite deadly once it’s reached the end of its trajectory. The cannelure and InterLock that tether its jacket to its core are quite effective at minimizing fragmentation. And once the SST’s hard tip gets mashed into its lead core, it commences the lively expansion that kills large game surely.
