Thread: 6.5 PRC

The market is cluttered with useful calibers on the same spectrum. I would like a 6.5PRC but have a 270WSM and a 7mmSAUM. Same but different. Doesn't mean I won't buy a PRC though.

I'm just an age-ed slut

Its always good playing with new stuff, it gets a bit mundane shooting the same sometimes, a change is good.

Yeah variety is the spice of life.

The 270 is and will remain an immensely usefull cartridge, only really hobbled (at least on paper) by slow twist rates and poor lr bullet selections.

They have almost identical h20 capacity, the prc isn't really any different than the 6.5/284 only it has actually found commercial success. Same story with the 6.5 creed. It's all about timing. More cartridges available can only be a good thing.
