[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1684255, member: 54178"] Just bought a 6.5 PRC Browning X-Bolt Pro rifle (24" barrel version). After having quite successfully used my 6.5 CM Ruger Precision Rifle at 1,100 yards on our club's steel range I now can say that the 6.5 PRC in my X-Bolt is even more amazing for shots over 1,000 yards as well as fighting our pernicious and unpredictable desert winds. So... that said I'm thinking I can use Hornady's new 153 gr. A-Tip (machined aluminum tip) on antelope at over 1,000 yards. (IF I can ever find any, that is!) Any comments on this round or Hornady's 143 gr. ELD-X ammo for ELR on antelope or coyotes? Eric B. BTW, The scope is a Bushnell Elite LRTS 4.5 - 18 x 44 W/G3 illuminated mil reticle. [/QUOTE]
