Abstract Every Finsler metric induces a spray on a manifold. With a volume form on a manifold, every spray can be deformed to a projective spray. The Ricci curvature of a projective spray is called the projective Ricci curvature. The projective Ricci curvature is an important projective invariant in Finsler geometry. In this paper, we study and characterize projectively Ricci-flat square metrics. Moreover, we construct some nontrivial examples on such Finsler metrics.
