The 300 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) is based off the beltless .375 Ruger cartridge, which was a design partnership between Hornady and Ruger back in 2008.

In 2018, Hornady released the 300 PRC, joining the competition in the favorites list of those hard-hitting, reliable .30 Caliber rounds. 

Some other popular .30 cal rounds include: 

- .300 Savage 
- .300 H&H Magnum
- .300 Weatherby Magnum
- 30-30 Winchester
- .300 CPM (Ruger Compact Magnum)
- .300 WSM
- .300 Blackout
- .308
- .30-06
- .300 Winchester Magnum

# .300 PRC vs 300 Win Mag. Highlights

The .300 PRC has a greater round length, but a shorter case length than the .300 Win Mag. 

PRC’s 300 rifle cartridge is the same diameter as the .300 Win. Mag.’s belt, but with less taper. The Hornady 300 PRC boasts a 30-degree shoulder (as opposed to the 25-degree shoulder on the 300 Win. Mag.). 

Thus, even though the .300 PRC case is slightly shorter at 2.58 inches than the Win. Mag., it offers about five percent more capacity.

The .300 PRC projectile has a long slim neck and added head height. This allows it to be loaded with high B.C. (ballistic-coefficient) bullets. 

The cartridge was custom-developed to work best with 200+ grain bullets. There are currently only three mass-produced loads for .300 PRC.

In the .300 Win Mag world, however, you have a lot of options for ammo, since the .300 Win Mag operates in the 150-200 grain space. Unlike the .300 PRC, this Win Mag casing is not engineered to work with a 200+ grain round. 

## Specs for .300PRC Rounds

The .300 PRC bullet was designed to be the ultimate precision long-range bullet. This round fires with a flat, stable flight path and long-distance accuracy. 

If you consistently shoot at far-away targets or hunt 1000lb game, this is your round. 

Marksmen choose the 300 PRC rifle cartridge to hit far-off targets and drop animals ethically and cleanly at 400 yards with this punch-packing cartridge. 

One of the most impressive aspects of this bullet was how it was developed to be the best: the creators built a new rifle and rifle bolt around the bullet.

While the usual route is to create a bullet to match a rifle, this approach gave the 300 PRC developers freedom to create an ideal cartridge without many of the usual design restrictions.

So what’s the take away from all this? 

If you want a cutting-edge shooting experience, it might be time to check out the .300 PRC round. 

One of the most notable rifles shooting .300 PRC is the Browning X Bolt (learn more about this long gun series here). Additionally, Howa and Christensen have developed some amazing bolt guns shooting .300 PRC. 

The 300 PRC vs 300 Win Mag standoff mirrors a similar rivalry between the 6.5 Creedmoor vs .308.

For those of you who are currently shooting .300 Win Mag., you’re no doubt aware of the pros and cons already. It has to be acknowledged that the .300 Win Mag is an amazing round with a strong history both in combat and hunting.

As in all things, however, there is room for improvement - and the .300 PRC is that improvement. 

You’ll just have to decide whether the switch makes sense for you.

## *What Gun Does John Wick Use? *

Short answer? To use the Baba Yaga’s own words: “...Lots of guns.”

You know that recurring dream where you confidently stroll into a luxury hotel filled with criminal masterminds to access a fully-stocked arsenal complete with an expert who “prescribes” the [perfect weapon](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/best-handgun-for-beginner-shooters)?

No? Must be just us...and Chad Stahelski. Clearly this director of the John Wick saga wanted to pack as many fan-favorite movie weapons into this all-action flick as possible--and succeeded. 

Unlike the James Bond series, there is no one single iconic John Wick gun--though there are several that he uses more frequently. 

This action-packed movie trilogy (soon to be continued with John Wick 4 in 2022) has more epic movie weapons then we have room to include here, but we’ll take a look at guns in John Wick that were some of the most talked about--and lethal.

## The John Wick Handgun Lineup

![John Wick Guns graphic 1](//images.contentful.com/57wxgy8frvdv/5lgYGa3DSHSijJ4tp8bzQX/042c8f2d7e8365d4cfc6056935e2f552/John_Wick_Guns_graphic_1.jpg)

First in the lineup of John Wick pistols, the Heckler and Koch P30L with custom compensator is the John Wick handgun of choice for most of the first movie. It makes another appearance in the catalog of guns used in John Wick 3, but is only seen briefly in the Wick’s arsenal in Chapter 2. 

The John Wick glock model favorite seems to be the G26. The Glock 26 is largely used as a backup in the first movie, then as a more prominent firearm choice in Chapter 2, outfitted with a TTI (Taran Tactical Innovations) Combat Carry Package.  

Wick takes a quick detour to using a Glock 34 with TTI Combat Master Package after being disarmed of his spiffy new customized Glock 26 with the TTI Combat Carry Package. Other than several Glock 17’s taken from hitmen in flights, however, the G26 reappears most often (as a trusty backup), making it one of the more recurrent John Wick handguns in the series--so far. 

It will be interesting to see whether we will get to see Keanu Reeves shooting [baddies](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/home-defense-part-1) with the stock models, or perhaps there will be some slick upgrades to the John Wick glock choice in John Wick 4. 

In the most recent series installment, the Glock 19 and Glock 19X are two of the few non-customized guns used in John Wick 3. The award for “most customized,” however, might have to go to the Remington 1875 Wick assembles in the antique weapons museum at the start of the film. 

One of the least modern John Wick guns is this “franken-[revolver](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/top-9mm-revolvers)” he skillfully pieces together with parts from other revolvers that allows him to load high .44-40 cartridges and take out an assassin. 

By the end of the movie, the professional assassin packs double the punch as with his H&K P30L when the Sommelier gives him an STI 2011 Combat Master (a 24-round mag [1911](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/who-needs-a-tactical-pistol)) customized by Taran Tactical in [9mm](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/9mm-vs-9mm-luger-whats-the-difference) major.

## The John Wick Shotgun of Choice 

The John Wick [Benelli M4](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/untitled-entry-2021-06-09-at-16-22-23) package consists of a great deal of customization from Taran Tactical Innovations (TTI). In the final Continental shoot scene, we see Keanu Reeves shooting a highly-customized Benelli M2 Super 9--also courtesy of TTI. 

Among the various types of guns in movies--and more specifically, John Wick guns--this one delivers some of the most bad guy-blasting satisfaction as Reeves handles the gas-powered shotgun with finesse. 

## The John Wick Rifle & Submachine Selection

![John Wick Guns graphic 2](//images.contentful.com/57wxgy8frvdv/34pD0cYdctecEYI0eNz9p2/1802844af4bc933b74a9036d4cc78b96/John_Wick_Guns_graphic_2.jpg)

In movie one, Wick makes prolific use of a CA 415, which is, essentially, an American-made clone of the Heckler & Koch HK416.

Any John Wick gun index would be incomplete without mentioning the TTI TR-1 Ultralight. A variety of high-end pieces compiled by Taran Tactical make up what amounts to a specialized John Wick [AR-15](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/do-you-need-a-custom-ar-15). 

This John Wick rifle is the full tactical package with a BCM handguard, stock and pistol from BCM, plus Trijicon Low Power Variable Optics (LPVO) up to 6x magnification and RMR red dot for close-quarters fights.

Finally, of all the guns in John Wick, the SIG-Sauer MPX probably has some of the highest potential to make a cameo in John Wick 4. A modified stock version, the MPX Copperhead, and the MPX [Carbine](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/Ammo-modern-shooter-part-2) models all get screen time as we see both Halle Berry and Keanu Reeves shooting up Casablanca and the Continental with each one. 

So, if you’re asking Siri or [IMFDB](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/imfdb-4-films-with-live-fire) to answer “What gun does John Wick use?” for the purpose of settling a debate or winning at a trivia game, you might find it difficult to narrow down an answer. 

If you are just curious about how to make your fancy firearm hotel dreams a reality, hopefully you found some good ideas here. 


John Wick Guns hero

Gun gurus and film fanatics unite! These John Wick guns bring the 'bang' to the big screen in every way.

What Gun Does John Wick Use? 

Whether you favor the pump-action Remington 870 Express, the gas-system Remington 870 Tactical, or the American classic Remington Model 1100, the Remington 870 platform boasts an impressive selection of mods to satisfy any shooter. 

Since 1950, this shotgun has maintained a reputation for reliability and quality. This means there has also been high demand for Remington 870 accessories that reinforce its excellent track record. 

Here are five (5) upgrades you might consider to make your Remington 870 Express shooting experience as smooth and comfortable as possible. 

## Replace the Remington 870 Stock and Forend 

Texture is key in choosing a forend for the 870 Express as this section between the receiver and muzzle is usually held in the non-dominant hand (or non-trigger-pulling finger hand) to steady a shot. 

Additionally, this may be where you’ll want to have an ironclad grip to smoothly chamber a round in a pump action version of the Remington 870 Express shotgun. 

Another notable [part](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/parts-of-a-gun) of any shotgun is the buttstock. The Remington 870 stock or Remington 870 tactical stock that comes standard on the shotgun may not be a suitable fit for your body type, shooting style or application. 

The stock is meant to help with accuracy by bolstering stability, so it's important that you find a model that feels steady and secure when you take your shooting stance.

Many shooters favor a Remington 870 pistol grip stock for defense purposes. 

Conventional wisdom recommends upgrading your stock to either a shorter length for tactical applications or a longer one for hunting. 

You can also select a Remington 870 adjustable stock if you want the freedom to change the length on a whim. 

![5 Upgrades for Your Remington 870 graphic 1](//images.contentful.com/57wxgy8frvdv/7q8bfLCYU1QKZEhcqDwOxl/3f47c7d44456e352e95a80efdd1378a5/5_Upgrades_for_Your_Remington_870_graphic_1.jpg)

To maximize reliability, it’s a good idea to purchase a high-quality Remington 870 stock and forend together, because they are typically made of the same material from the same manufacturer. 

The [Magpul SGA Stock](https://www.ammoplanet.com/products/magpul-sga-rem-870-stk-fde-rplmpimag460fde) and [Magpul MOE forend](https://www.ammoplanet.com/products/magpul-moe-m-lok-forend-rem-870-blk-rplmpimag496blk), for example, are two high-quality upgrades you can add to your 870 Express shotgun.

## Upgrade the 870 Express Safety Button

Whether you purchase a Remington 870 for home [defense](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/home-defense-part-1) purposes or not, there may be situations where you have to operate the gun under stress. 

Being able to quickly and reliably disengage the safety mechanism of any firearm is just as integral to the process of protecting yourself and those around you as taking the actual shot. 

Many shooters find that the stock model safety button on the 870 Express is simply too small to disengage quickly under duress or with gloved hands. 

One of the simplest and most effective Remington 870 accessories is to replace the factory safety with an oversized safety button. 

The good news is that you do not even need to know how to disassemble a Remington 870 in order to make this upgrade. Plenty of drop-in installation options are available to make this a quick and easy modification. 

## Choke Options for the Remington 870 Express 

The choke is another mod option that can be done in a snap if you want to change the pellet exit pattern. 

As long as your Remington 870 has a barrel with a screw-in choke design, you have the option to increase or decrease the spread of your shot to improve your range or  accuracy for your needs.

If you will most likely be using your Remington 870 Express Tactical for home defense and/or up-close shots, a cylinder or improved cylinder choke will work just fine. 

The more spread out shot pattern on these types of chokes improve your chances of hitting a [target](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/shooting-range-targets-for-home-and-away) over a short distance. With cylinder and improved chokes, slugs will give better accuracy, while birdshot and buckshots are recommended for targets in the 20-30yd range.

Those who prefer [long distance](https://www.ammoplanet.com/blog/5-tried-and-true-tips-to-improve-your-long-range-shooting-game) shotgun (aka 30-70yd) shooting might upgrade their 870 Express to a full choke kit. 

By restricting the spread of the shot, you get more precision with a tighter shot pattern--especially with bird- or buckshot--- than you would with a cylinder or modified (see below) choke.

If you want the “best of both worlds” option, a modified choke is basically the middle ground between cylinder and full choke. Slide one of these into your Remington 870 Express muzzle for medium distance (30-40yd) and medium accuracy.

![5 Upgrades for Your Remington 870 graphic 3](//images.contentful.com/57wxgy8frvdv/7waf3z5DvTgP7sA1CBTAgD/8fe4351cc080045f98f2c5521459fed1/5_Upgrades_for_Your_Remington_870_graphic_3.jpg)

## Remington 870 Tactical Accessories for Accuracy 

A Picatinny rail is going to be the best way to accomplish most optics or light upgrades to a Remington 870 Express. 

You may also prefer not to install an actual optic to your 870 Express. In that case, you can use the stock sights on most shotguns, which look more like a bead on top of the barrel.

Upgrade your single bead sight for fast-moving targets or a slide on a double bead set-up to train yourself to keep your cheek on the barrel for increased accuracy. 

Want to be able to self-adjust the windage and elevation? Rig up a post-and-blade (P&B) sight Remington 870 Express Tactical rifle.

## 870 Express Extended Shotshell Tubes

A hunter who wants a couple of spare shots available without adding excessive weight to their Remington 870 might benefit most from a simple two-shell extender. 

The “go-big-or-go-home” shooters, however, might be excited to hear about a new twist on an old classic: the Remington 870 pump action shotgun now comes in versions that feed from detachable box magazines. You can identify them by the “DM” designation after the model name.

Formerly an after-market only modification, this announcement is especially good news for anyone in competition, or simply looking to extend the time between reloads.

Finally, whether you’re looking to reload your 870 Express for range day, a weekend trip, or gearing up for your next competition, we’ve got your ammo, accessories, covered.
