[QUOTE="Lefty G-gear, post: 2038709, member: 26902"] I have a bolt-action 6.5 PRC. (Mossberg Patriot Predator Strata - Cerakote, with Boyds laminate wood stock.) And the 6.5 Creedmoor AR upper that sits on the 308 lower and uses the same magazines. Both have 24-inch barrels. I still have yet to see what they can really do. :D QUOTE: "In October 2017, U.S. Special Operations Command tested the performance of the 7.62x51 NATO, .260 Remington, and 6.5 CM cartridges out of SR25, M110A1, and Mk20 sniper rifles. SOCOM determined that the 6.5CM performed the best, doubling hit probability at 1,000 meters (italics mine) increasing effective range by nearly half, reducing wind drift by a third and having less recoil than the 7.62 NATO rounds…" [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.fieldandstream.com/65-creedmoor-vs-308-winchester/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
