[QUOTE="liv4thehunt, post: 3049873, member: 43150"] I have built 3 6.5-7wsm’s, and one 6.5-300 wsm. All of the 6.5-7 wsm’s peaked with 156’s at 3300 on 26” barrels. The first one shot 142 ABLR’s at 3400 sub 1/4 moa right before it burned out at 600 rounds. I just did the 6.5-300 wsm on a 22” Bartlein. It shoots 156’s at 3100. The 6.5-7 PRC would be almost identical to the 6.5-7 wsm case. 3100-3150 should be very doable with a 22” barrel. I did the 6.5-300 for myself, hoping for 7-800 rounds of barrel life. Time will tell, but before I cut the barrel down it was only 50 fps slower than the 6.5-7 wsm with 5 grains less powder. [/QUOTE]
