[QUOTE="Cutback, post: 2220763, member: 100455"] AZHTR, When I first put my 6.5 PRC together, I could not get the accuracy w/speed, that this cartridge was designed for. 140 Bergers, 140/143 Hornadys, 140 Noslers, 124 Hammers and 140 Sierra's. Magnum and LG Rifle Primers. All of the top most commonly used powders. Hell, I was just looking for 2925-3000FPS. The gun just hit pressure early... It never occurred to me, that maybe, I hadn't got the barrel completely clean so, in an exercise of final desperation, I decided to clean the living hell out of it! I thought I broke in the barrel properly but, turned out, I wasn't getting it perfectly clean... Running a regimen of Butches Bore Shine, Kroil, Montana Extreme, and JB's Bore Paste, I got the barrel clean... Night and day difference, in feel alone, running patches down the bore... Don't know if it will help but, just sharing my experience with Dr. frustration. She shoots great, has acceptable speed and is easy to clean. YMMV... [/QUOTE]
