Any real world reviews of the 6.5 PRC?

257WbyMag, Shaw, & N2Trkys all shoot one if I’m not mistaken.

James just got one too but I’m not sure if he’s even had a chance to break her in yet.

It’s a 6.5/284 +P 😂. I can run 140s right at 3000fps in my 6.5/284. PRC is a little hotter. Not enough to change for me. I’ve thought about reaming that barrel to 26 Nosler though 😁. 140s at close to 3500 would be FUN.

What is it exactly you want to know? I’ve got one, love it. It’s what most Creedmoor owners think they have.

I got one back in the spring. I like it! Been loading for it. Haven’t decided on the final combination I am going to use.

I want a begara highlander premier in 6.5 prc so bad. But Ammo is difficult to come by and I don’t have a place to hunt this year. So it doesn’t matter.

Unfortunately, I’m not a member of the 6.5 PRC club. I have a 7 SAUM. When they start making factory 6 PRC brass, I’ll build me one of those.

Take that 7 SAUM brass and neck it down to a 6.5 GAP 4S.

Better than the PRC.

It'll kill deer. The deer will be no more or less dead than dozens and dozens of other capable deer killing calibers.

Ammo has been fairly scarce and expensive.

If that's what you want...get it.

I thought real hard about a 6.5 prc instead of a 308 in the bergara hmr i bought but barrel life ammo availability and cost made me stick with the 308
