I'm looking at building 16.5" 6PRC thinking about running the 108 eldm I was wondering if anyone had this set up. And what's your thoughts,

Got my second one now, but neither is short-barreled. You may want to check this thread out on Rokslide about the 6UM - maybe more info than you care to wade through:

The 6UM
The 6UM was designed by Ryan Avery and Blaine Painter to be the fastest short-action 6mm. The parent case is a 6.5 SAUM. Build Specs Tikka Action McGowan #3 20" Barrel 7 Twist fluted by Kampfeld Chambered by Unknown Munitions MDT HNT26

My first was a 26" barrel and I ran 109 LR hybrids at 3350 with H1000. Near pressure, but safe. On an Impact action and was typically .375 to .625 at 100 yds. Best 5-shot at 1000 yds was about 8" - impressive ballistics at that range.
I thought about the 6UM, but this is far easier and I already had 6.5 PRC bushing dies.

I have one but it's a 22" Krieger barrel. I shoot 105's at 3310 and 109's at 3240. Crazy accurate and man it does a number on coyotes and hogs. Have yet to shoot any other live critter with it. But I am tempting to mule deer hunt with it.
