The Weatherby Select Plus .300 PRC 195-grain Hammer Custom load is engineered for long-range precision shooters and serious big-game hunters who demand absolute terminal reliability. A classic headache with legacy magnum cartridges is the traditional belted case design, which can cause uneven powder burns, inconsistent ignition, and erratic velocity spreads at extended distances. This ultra-modern round completely eliminates that variable by combining a beltless, high-efficiency case with a precision-machined monolithic projectile for rock-solid consistency when the shot of a lifetime presents itself.
The technical advantage is found in the .300 PRC’s modern case architecture, which is built on a beltless .375 Ruger parent case. Featuring a sharp 30° shoulder, this design optimizes the powder column for a highly efficient, uniform burn that drastically reduces velocity extreme spreads. Up front, the lathe-turned, solid copper Hammer Custom bullet brings perfect mass symmetry to the equation. Because it is machined from a single piece of premium copper alloy, there is no jacket to separate, stretch, or fail under intense magnum rotational forces.
Slinging a heavy 195-grain monolithic bullet at a blistering 2,950 FPS with 3,769 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this system features a streamlined profile with a 0.551 G1 ballistic coefficient that cuts through heavy crosswinds and maintains a laser-flat trajectory over extreme distances. Upon impact, the CNC-machined hollow-point nose is engineered for controlled petal shedding, fracturing perfectly to create a devastating primary wound channel. Meanwhile, the heavy, solid copper rear shank remains completely intact, preserving its high sectional density and maximum shank weight retention to drive straight and deep through thick hide and heavy bone.
Key Benefits
- Modern Beltless Architecture: .375 Ruger parent case with a 30° shoulder ensures a uniform powder burn and ultra-low velocity deviation.
- Lathe-Turned Monolithic Copper: Solid copper design entirely eliminates core-jacket separation for 100% structural weight retention.
- Controlled Petal Shedding: CNC-machined hollow point sheds its forward petals to maximize internal trauma while the solid base shank punches deep.
- Long-Range Efficiency: Heavy 195-grain profile with a 0.551 G1 BC maximizes downrange energy retention and masterfully resists mid-flight wind drift.
