Thread: Some thoughts on 6.5 PRC

You can run it hot but then brass only lasts a few loads so do you really gain anything except burning up extra powder and wrecking your brass

I like the 6.5SAUM but its really nothing better than a 270 with hi bc bullets, Although others rave about it, I found it to be a poor killer on live game with eldx.

Making brass gets a bit tedious but given the dramas and cost getting mine to actually work reliably in the extraction dept along with the fact I have enough brass for at least 2 more barrels and the reamer I am really seem committed to sticking with it carbon rings and all.

A non custom rifle in 6.5PRC would have been better and far far less troublesome (did not exist when I had my SAUM built) but then almost anything is suitable for shooting steel.
