[QUOTE="Wild Monkey, post: 2198166, member: 103097"] This is an old wise tail. For instance the 300 RCM is designed as a short barrel round by Ruger-Hornady. You can tune for the short barrel and powder burn. Or that's what I read from the Manufacturer. Oh and I forgot to mention the new 6.8 Western in that list but I didn't take the time to look up the data on that one. Rich could probably chime in and give the data of his 6.5 @ 600 Yards and we could see, as the 6.5 PRC did not list a factory load that could accomplish the 1500 Pounds recommended for Elk. (yes, that's not taking into account all the well placed shot opinions, but why build a purpose built Rifle not meeting minimum recommended performance?) [/QUOTE]
