[QUOTE="okie man, post: 1717810, member: 75071"] The 6.5 prc vs 6.5 creed is no different than the 7mm/08 vs7 mag or 308win vs 300 win mag conversation! More powder, more recoil, shorter barrel life for 250-300 FPS. For deer at normal ranges all work fine. Stretch the ranges out past 600 yards on critters bigger than deer, 3 out of the 6 are no longer in my consideration! If a long action magnum is more than you can shoot comfortably, a short mag you can makes a lot of sense, and the 6.5 prc fits that bill, along with lots of similar short mags out there now. I have a nice 6.5 creedmoor, Christensen Mesa long range, it’s fun to shoot, very accurate. But for serious big game hunting It’s a little anemic for my tastes! [/QUOTE]
