Description
Peterson Cartridge's 7mm PRC brass is match-grade component brass made in the USA for handloaders who want to wring every bit of accuracy out of the cartridge. It comes unprimed and large rifle primer pocket, giving you a clean starting point to build precision loads for hunting, PRS matches, or long-range steel. Each box holds brass sorted for weight and dimensional consistency, which is a big part of why it has earned such a strong reputation among precision reloaders.
The 7mm PRC is Hornady's standard long-action magnum that slots between the 6.5 PRC and 300 PRC. It runs a .532 case head and headspaces off a 30-degree shoulder, fitting rifles built around a .540 magnum bolt face. The short, fat case body with minimal taper is known for consistent powder burn, which translates to good velocity numbers and less muzzle blast than older belted magnums. It also drives the long, heavy-for-caliber 7mm bullets in the 160 to 190 grain range that make this round such a flat shooter at distance.
Why Reloaders Reach for Peterson 7mm PRC Brass
Peterson builds this brass on a state-of-the-art case line aimed at tight tolerances on case wall thickness, primer pockets, and flash holes. Handloaders consistently note how little sizing fresh cases need out of the box, along with clean flash holes and sturdy primer pockets that hold up through multiple firings. For anyone chasing low velocity spread and small groups, starting with brass this uniform takes a variable off the table.
Getting the Most From Your 7mm PRC Cases
Treat this brass like the quality component it is. A light chamfer and deburr, a check on case length, and consistent neck tension will set you up for repeatable results. Because the cartridge is designed around heavy, high-BC bullets and a 1:8 twist, pairing well-prepped Peterson brass with a quality powder and primer gives you a real shot at sub-MOA performance.
Only use these casings in a firearm in good condition that is specifically chambered and marked for the 7mm PRC.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Peterson 7mm PRC brass primed or unprimed?
These cases ship unprimed, so you'll supply your own primers during load prep. They use a large rifle primer pocket, which matches standard 7mm PRC loading data. That gives you full control over your primer choice for building accurate loads.
How many reloads can I expect from Peterson 7mm PRC cases?
Peterson builds this as match-grade brass aimed at better than industry-average case life, and the 7mm PRC case itself is known for good longevity compared to older belted magnums. Reloaders frequently report sturdy primer pockets that hold up through multiple firings. Your actual count depends on load pressure, sizing technique, and how carefully you prep the brass.
What rifles will this 7mm PRC brass work in?
The 7mm PRC is a standard long-action cartridge with a .532 case head, so it runs in long-action rifles built around a .540 magnum bolt face. Always confirm your firearm is specifically chambered and marked for 7mm PRC before loading. Only use these casings in a rifle that is in good condition.
