[QUOTE="Stk, post: 1906282, member: 98934"] Not trying to talk you into something you don’t want, but a 6.5 PRC has more energy at 500 yards than a .270 win...or a .30-06 for that matter. Significantly more velocity expected and better penetration at those ranges too. [URL]https://www.hornady.com/ammunition/rifle/6.5-prc-143-gr-eld-x-precision-hunter#!/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.hornady.com/ammunition/rifle/270-win-145-gr-eld-x-precision-hunter#!/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.hornady.com/ammunition/rifle/30-06-springfield-178-gr-eld-x-precision-hunter#!/[/URL] The advantages of the 6.5 PRC only get more pronounced the farther out you go from there. I’d you’re still unconvinced, I recommend the .280ai or one of the lighter WSMs. 7mm if you handload, .270 if you don’t. [/QUOTE]
