[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1637156, member: 33159"] I own a 6.5-284 Norma and love it. The 6.5 PRC is basically its ballistic twin. Super accurate and low recoil. You’ll be able to purchase cheaper factory ammo for it compared to the 26 Nosler. Plus, you’ll be able to find cheaper and more plentiful brass. I understand it’s very easy to load for. Most people on this site know of Jeff Brozovich. He owns a CA in the PRC. He told me it has been the easiest cartridge to dial in. He’s only been shooting Hornady factory ammo in it, too. Said he hasn’t bothered to start reloading for it yet since the factory ammo shoots so well. He dropped a pronghorn over 800 yards with the ELDM match ammo. I think it’s a great deer and antelope cartridge. I wouldn’t hunt elk with it. I believe you owe it to the elk to use a 30 cal or larger, but your 7mm is a very good round for elk. Buy what you want. If you want more horsepower, then go for it and get the 26. I love horsepower, so I understand the allure. These are first world problems. Good luck with your purchase. Doug [/QUOTE]
