[QUOTE="IHFarmer07, post: 1495533, member: 75397"] I have talked to 2 rifle builders GAP and PVA and both said that they have no problems with putting the 6.5 PRC in a short action, they had no idea why a person would put it in a long action unless your shooting F class to get every little bit of FPS a person can get out of it which they also said that if you go long action there are way better cartridges and that's why the 6.5 PRC has a purpose. I have looked into the 7saum case and the prc is shorter by .005 and people have no problems with those in the short action with 180's....heck I watched a guy on you tube shoot a 7saum very well out of a rem short action hitting mild jugs at a mile and 2000yrds. So in the end I think I have made my decision to move on with the 6.5 PRC, I really liked what I heard from 2 places very familiar with the round. I still think necking up a 6.5prc to .284 would be a cats meow for a short action 7 mag caliber! I also looked at the 300prc and I think this cartridge will be a great success both in 30 cal and would be and ultimate case to neck down to .284, in .284 that thing would be sweet!!!....time will tell what will be out next, these new aged cartridges are something to really look forward to, hopefully an awesome .284 will be in the works soon!
