[QUOTE="CLP, post: 1479481, member: 75790"] I think you have to compare the PRC and the 6.5x284 on a basis other than ballistics. I totally agree that there’s very little difference in the two (6.5x284 was my go to for the prior 7 years). When I built mine the objective was the lightest rifle humanly possible. I think you can capitalize on the high BC bullets in a PRC with a more compact package. My rifle ended up just a shade over 5.5# and I don’t think I could have gotten there with a 6.5x284. The key thing to consider with the PRC is making sure you have the .188 free bore if shooting VLD’s. [/QUOTE]
