300 PRC Ammo For Sale | Extreme Long-Range Loads
Buy 300 PRC Ammo Online
The 300 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) is a modern magnum built from the
ground up for extreme long-range performance. Designed to launch heavy,
high-ballistic-coefficient .30-caliber bullets at high velocity, it stays
supersonic and accurate at distances that challenge older magnums — making it a
standout for long-range target shooting, competition, and big-game hunting at
range. At Trigger Ammo Store, we carry a deep selection of 300 PRC ammunition for
shooters who want cutting-edge long-range capability.
What Is the 300 PRC?
Introduced by Hornady in 2018, the 300 PRC was engineered specifically to get
the most out of long, heavy, high-BC .30-caliber bullets — projectiles that older
.300 magnums often can’t fully stabilize or seat efficiently. Built on a modern,
beltless magnum case with an optimized geometry and fast-twist barrels, the 300
PRC delivers flat trajectories, excellent wind resistance, and hard-hitting
downrange energy. It was even adopted in a military long-range role, underscoring
its serious extreme-distance credentials.
What Is 300 PRC Good For?
- Extreme long-range shooting: Heavy high-BC bullets keep
the 300 PRC supersonic and accurate well past 1,000 yards, a favorite for ELR
and precision competition. - Big-game hunting: Flat trajectory and strong retained
energy make it excellent on elk, moose, and large game at extended ranges. - Mountain & open-country hunting: The reach and
wind-bucking performance shine where shots stretch out across big terrain.
300 PRC vs 300 Win Mag
Both are .30-caliber magnums, but they’re built for different eras of bullet
design. The 300 Win Mag is the proven classic — hugely popular,
widely available, and superb for hunting. The 300 PRC is the
modern long-range specialist, with a case and chamber optimized for the heaviest,
highest-BC bullets and a fast-twist barrel to stabilize them. For maximum
extreme-distance performance the 300 PRC has the edge; for all-around hunting
with the widest ammo selection, the 300 Win Mag remains hard to beat. They are
different, non-interchangeable cartridges — match ammo to your rifle.
Types of 300 PRC Ammo We Carry
- Match-Grade (ELD-Match-style): Heavy high-BC precision
bullets for extreme long-range accuracy and competition. - Long-Range Hunting (ELD-X / bonded): Controlled-expansion
bullets that combine flat trajectory with reliable terminal performance at
distance. - Premium Big-Game: Tough bonded and monolithic bullets for
elk and larger game.
Common 300 PRC Bullet Weights
The 300 PRC is loaded with heavy-for-caliber, high-BC .30 bullets to maximize
its long-range advantage. The 212 grain ELD-X-style hunting load
and the 225 grain ELD-Match-style precision load are the defining
factory offerings, with other heavy bullets available. The cartridge’s fast-twist
barrels are built specifically to stabilize these long, heavy projectiles.
Top 300 PRC Ammo Brands
Because Hornady developed the cartridge, it offers the broadest 300 PRC
lineup, including Precision Hunter (ELD-X) and Match (ELD-Match) loads. We also
stock offerings from Federal, Nosler, and other premium makers as availability
allows. We work to keep quality 300 PRC loads in stock for both the range and
the hunt.
Availability & Buying Tips
As a newer magnum, 300 PRC factory ammo is made by a smaller group of
manufacturers and can sell out quickly, especially premium match and hunting
loads. It pays to buy when you see your preferred load in stock — pick up enough
for load development, sight-in, and your hunt from the same lot, and set a stock
alert so you’re never caught short before a match or trip.
Recoil & Shooting Notes
The 300 PRC is a full-power magnum and recoils accordingly — more than
standard cartridges, but manageable in a properly set up rifle with a good recoil
pad or muzzle brake. Its accuracy and flat trajectory make it rewarding to shoot
at distance once you’re zeroed and comfortable with the load.
Fast, Reliable Shipping
Orders ship quickly with secure, age-verified delivery in compliance with
all applicable federal, state, and local laws. By placing an order you confirm
you are at least 18 years of age (21+ where required) and that it is legal for
you to purchase and receive rifle ammunition at your delivery address. Some
states and localities restrict ammunition shipments — please review your local
regulations before ordering.
