Thread: 7PRCW or 7/6.5PRC

What was the issue the 6.5 prc? A mate has one in a bergara, 21.5 inch barrel, putting rounds through the same hole but only doing 2670

Thats the issue a .260 will do an honest 2800 with an 18-20" tube . As for the 7 6.5prc I understand its popular over their due to lack of 7saum brass more than anything would be my guess? Iv only seen numbers once and I cant quote them but it was a fair bit slower than the saum and a heap slower than the wsm

Exactly it's anemic but very accurate.

That is bloody anemic! Is that with factory ammo or a handload? Mine chucks 153gr at 2950 from 22"....have had 3k but brass life wasn't good.

He only shoots factory, those were eld-m
