[QUOTE="Weatherby Fan, post: 1488482, member: 29953"] I shoot a lot recreationally, I'm at the range 3 times a week or more and I take 3 to 5 Hunting rifles with me, 6mm CM, 6.5 CM, 6.5-284, 6.5 PRC, 280AI, 28 Nosler, just to name a few. Of all the new Factory ammo out there Hornady's Precision Hunter ELD-X and Precision Match ELD-M ammo is amazingly accurate out of the box, Nosler has some great factory ammo but about twice the cost. So if a chap wants to build a 6.5 PRC over a 6.5-284 and isn't a handloader its a no brainer, go 6.5 PRC or the 6.5CM, accurate and cheap ammo with excellent hunting and target bullets, hard to say no to the offerings. I love my 6.5-284 but factory ammo is brutally expensive in this part of the world. Thankfully I have the option of Handloading. If you ask me Hornady has done what Winchester and Remington should have done years back with their respective SA Cartridges 6.5-WSM and 6.5-SAUM, but to continually diss the creation of another great 6.5 cartridge or any new cartridge for that matter seems silly to me.
