Thread: 6.5 PRC what’s the point?!

The point is you will be able to probably get a fairly good factory shooter off the shelf of your preference brand, will be chambered to the hornady factory ammo so will shoot pretty good from box, you can then keep the empties to start reloading.
All above is valid but try buying a 6.5 x 284 off the shelf in NZ. I have one, a Savage but they are few and far between.
Just a few sutilties that made the 6.5 CR successful even though not really anything better than available but that a big brand pushed it and the rifle makers made the flavour of the month rifles to shoot it.
