[QUOTE="PredatorSlayer, post: 1712477, member: 110866"] I bought a 6.5 PRC recently and got it out to the range yesterday to shoot a little with some precision hunter ammo. I only shot a box through it... after zeroing, I shot two sub 3/4 moa 100 yard groups and then launched the last 5 down range at 500 yards to validate my velocity and put them all in a 3” group. Looks like I am getting 3000 FPS out of a 26” barrel. I went and picked up 3 more boxes from the same lot. I am super impressed and will probably forego handloads for the time being. I am headed out after antelope, elk and mule deer in a couple weeks and plan on taking this one rifle for all 3 hunts. Just wondering what everybody else experience has been with this ammo? [/QUOTE]
