6.5 prc

Question for you PRC owners: How big of a problem is the "clicker" issue on PRC cases after they've been fired a few times? I've read and heard a few things in various places complaining that the 6.5 and 300 PRCs have a design flaw where you get stiff bolt lift on about every case after 2, 3, or...

Moved this discussion from the Reloading Room thread to here Let me preface this with saying I am running a Mossberg Patriot Predator with a 24in barrel. Ok so I got some new 156gr Bergers in this week and loaded up a few test batches. Here's the chronograph results. 156gr Berger 58.5gr...

I'm head over heels in love with 6.5 PRC now that I've had some half way serious ammo put together and while I haven't had a chance to stretch it's legs. I like the super sleek bullets used by it over the 270... I have 400 pieces of Lapua brass for the 6.5 PRC lol. I have a Mossberg Patriot in...

Hey everyone check out my idea of a western style big game rifle spec Browning Xbolt Long Range Hunter 6.5 PRC Barrel cut to 20 inches from 24 inches Thunder beast arms Ultra 7 (ultra 9 shown) Luepold Mk 3 HD 3-9x40 Mildot talley integral 2 piece ring/base No name Para cord sling...

Finally got to drop the hammer on my new 6.5 PRC on something other than a target. 450 yards on old Wiley Coyote. 156 grain Berger with 57 Grains MagPro. Dead on impact.

Reloading data for the 6.5 PRC has been hit or miss with any given powder / bullet combination. I was looking for load data to use with Accurate MagPro powder and the 156 Grain Berger ELO Elite Hunters and really couldn't find any data. Accurates website load data stopped at 147 grain bullets...

Good day fellow reloaders. Does anybody have problems with Retumbo. Ive used it know for the first time on my 6.5 PRC. But I run into some trouble. The speed is way down. Running at Hornadys max load of 59.3 gr with both a fed 210 and 215 primers over a 142gr sierra MK it is running at 100fps...

I prefer flat shooting rifles. My two hunting rifles are a .25-06 and a .300WM (in part because they both use the same powders for reloading). I have been thinking about looking for a hunting rifle in-between my .25-06 and .300WM that offers lower recoil than my .300WM, is better suited for deer...

There are plenty of reviews online for the Sako S20 Hunter and Precision models but I haven't seen much of anything for shooting results, load development, function etc. I have an S20 Hunter arriving today and plan on sharing real-world results and comparing this rifle to a custom Kimber 8400...

Has anyone put a 6.5 PRC in a Remington 700 long action? I know SAAMI specs call for it to be 2.955", however, considering that is right on the cusp of being too long for a short action and I will only be using monolithic projectiles which are inherently longer than lead core bullets I was...
