[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1623589"] You have plenty of good responses but here's my personal 6.5 experience: I have a lightweight 6.5 saum and its been unbelievable with 147's. I've taken my last three bulls with it (one over a half mile away), and my wife shoots it exclusively, without a brake. That being said I would go with a 6.5 PRC, it has a little less capacity than the SAUM, and will still run a 147 @ 3050 with H1000. ADG brass and readily available dies are hard to beat, the PRC will be just fine in a short action, I run my SAUM at 2.97". [/QUOTE]
