[QUOTE="BH107, post: 2355466, member: 19759"] I built a 22" 6.5 PRC for this year but used a Proof carbon barrel on a Savage action. I went with 22" because I wanted to hunt with a suppressor and that also led me to the Proof barrel for the rigidity. I am very pleased with the results. Its shooting factory Hornady Match 147s at 2880fps and 1/2 MOA or better out to 500 yards. It was shooting well enough that I didn't bother to blow through the rest of the factory rounds I had purchased and start working up a handload, that will come next year sometime. [/QUOTE]
