[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1883300, member: 54178"] UPDATE: I sold that Browning X-Bolt Pro with SWFA 3 - 15 x 40 scope to a good friend. Then I turned around and bought its clone, [B]X-Bolt Pro in 6.5 PRC [/B]with [I]Bushnell 4.5 - 18 x 44 scope [/I](FFP, mil/mil and G3 illuminated "small Xmas tree" reticle. Same burnt bronze Cerakote Talley rings I had on the other rifle. I felt the 6.5 PRC was more suited to taking both mule deer and bull elk (to 300 yards). So the 6.5 PRC barrel heats up FAST and 5 shots in 3 minutes is all I can get until 1/2" groups open to 1 1/4". Photo soon. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
