[QUOTE="Bullmark, post: 1901942, member: 113003"] I shoot a 6.5 SAUM, which is very similar ballistically to the PRC. I also have a couple larger calibers. I’m 50 and the older I get the more I dislike recoil. The 6.5 will be fine for elk at 500 and in. A light weight Mtn rifle will really magnify any imperfections with your shooting skills. Most guys will always shoot the lighter caliber more accurately than the heavier ones. I know that’s the case with myself. I would buy the 6.5 and make sure you practice at your max ranges. The recoil will be less and you’ll be more inclined to practice. Just my thoughts. There’s a reason I have a beautiful 7 STW in my gun vault with very few rounds through it. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
