[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1568133, member: 54178"] I have a 6.5 Creed Browning X-Bolt Pro with a 22" barrel. when I re-barrel it will be a 24" barrel for a bit more velocity. For the 6.5 PRC (really a 6.5 magnum cartridge) you may as well go to 24" right away to maximize the 6.5 PRC potential. Otherwise just get the 6.5 Creed. **The 6.5 PRC is a magnum cartridge that should not be dropped to 6.5 Creed velocity levels just to save a few inches and ounces off a barrel. Instead drop those ounces from some other gear like the rifle sling, scope mount, scope, hunting boots, etc. (even off yourself ;o) Eric B. [/QUOTE]
