[QUOTE="Gamesniper19, post: 1603404, member: 95013"] I have shot extensively with the 6.5 x 284 and have 2 other 6.5s in my catalogue. The PRC would be my choice out of the two you listed and if you are open to an alternative, IMO the best 6.5 caliber for your needs is the 6.5 GAP because: [LIST] [*]140 grain bullets reach 3200 fps without extreme pressures [*]Efficient case to bullet weight ratio - 24 inch tubes burn 100% of the powder [*]2000 +/- shot barrel life [*]Faster and more efficient than the PRC - Hornady wanted the GAP and asked GAP to help them build "something close" [*]GAP wouldn't let the PRC outperform the 6.5 GAP [/LIST] Tag [/QUOTE]
