[QUOTE="MajorSpittle, post: 1955190, member: 53101"] Hey, that is me...... 7 RM, '06, 270 win, now 6.5 PRC because there is not 7.0 PRC. Strangely I see 6.5 CM ammo everywhere in stores still but I see production 6.5 PRC rifles being sold as fast as they come in. Gun makers must see the 6.5 PRC as the new 6.5 CM and all jumped on the bandwagon early producing rifles for them. Shouldn't be long before the ammo makers catch up and the shelves are filled with 6.5 PRC ammo and reloading supplies. Thank goodness for Hornady updating Twist Rates on rifles with new cartridge in the market. Really hope they get something out for the 270 and 280..... It would be nice to have a replacement for the 30-06 case for different calibers. I think the old '06 is the perfect powder capacity for .284 down to .264 .... Not so much to replace the '06 case but to have new twist rates associated to the smaller calibers. [/QUOTE]
