6.5 PRC build

[thaught]

I'll be building a 6.5 PRC in either a Defiance action or lone Peak. What length of do y'all reccomend? Medium or Long? I think short action won't load me enough to seat the bullets out.

I would do a medium action.

I'm building this exact gun on a lone peak titanium long action 26" 1-8 twist proof with a axial precision stock and a T3 Terminator break.

I just finished a Defiance Rebel XM, Defiance XM (Sunny Hill) BDL bottom metal, 24" Proof Sendero 1-7:5 tw, Hawkins muzzle brake, Trigger Tech Special set at 2LBS, Manner's EH-1, Talley LW rings with bubble level and a Zeiss V6 3-18X50. I have not shot it yet but plan on working up loads using 156 EOL Berger, ADG Brass and VV N565. I use Phoenix Custom Rifles to do all of my smith needs, Keith and Brad Johns have done a great job on 9 custom builds so far.

I'm doing the same fb on mine should be good for the heavier 6.5's.
