To beat a dead horse, the only thing the PRCs give you is ability to shoot heavy for caliber high BC bullets because the barrels have appropriate twist rates.
Most 6.5 creedmoors are made with 8 twist barrels (the most common twist for 6.5mm blanks) and with any elevation at all (not 200 feet) they will adequately stabilize 156 EOLs and 153 Atips, and everything down. You don’t have to go to PRC velocity for that, and it’s the same 8 twist blank that’s most common in both creedmoor and PRC. 7.7 twist makes stability possible at sea level. 7.5 twist lets you run lower velocity.
Personally I like the 144 LRHT now over the 153 atip, 153.5LRHT or 156 EOL bullets with their negligible BC gains mostly being washed by velocity differences. Even in PRC I prefer the 144. It works very well on deer.
But I totally agree to pick and shoot whatever you want, whatever makes you happy.
