[timmymic]

looking at bullets for my 6.5 prc comparing these 2 bullets for deer and elk from 100-800 yards. Any thoughts?

Timmy, I just got my PRC build last week and ordered the 156EOLs yesterday. Also got 147Ms on the way. I'm playing on QuickLoad and it's looking like the 147M will be better for the PRC(mines 24") but the 156EOLs are looking real good for my 264WM(26"). The 147s in my PRC 24" prediction on node(1.228ms) w/ RL 26 is 3040. The 156EOLs in my 264WM 26" prediction on node(1.329ms) w/ N570 is 3100.
The 156 pressures out on the faster node in the PRC.

I bet you will have a node with the 147 in the 2930 (RL26) and 2980 (H1000) with the PRC with a 24" if your gun is anything like mine. It gets accurate a little hotter, but you'll probably see pressure signs around 3k or just above that.
