[QUOTE="Jack300WSM, post: 2155779, member: 107882"] I’m getting ready to rebarrel one of my 700’s. I’ve been wanting to try 6.5 PRC for awhile now. Got the dies, and getting components (if/when they come available). I’ve got an uncle who kills a lot of deer but he said for some reason the 6.5 PRC punched holes in three whitetails, they all ran off and hardly a blood trail. He said he was using factory ELDX loads. He also said he had better luck with the 6.5 CM. I know you can chalk it up to the yardage being less than 150yds for all three but I thought the bullet would’ve come apart and been more devastating than what he witnessed. I didn’t find out where they were hit as far as a lethal hit or not. Anybody else experienced the same or better experiences with the PRC? My usage will be mostly whitetails? Thanks [/QUOTE]
