[QUOTE="BadDogPSD, post: 1696898, member: 25121"] I was intrigued enough to order a 6.5 PRC. I just picked it up and bought some factory ammo for the break in. Planning on Berger 156's for deer sized game. Was in a class last week as d the guy next to me was shooting a 6.5 PRC. I was shooting a 6 5 Creed. The PRC was about 250 fps faster (He was shooting Hornady Precision Hunter 147's vs my 140's). He often didn't need to make any adjustments for wind when I was holding .3-.5 mills at 500-700 yards. Elevation was similar. For a hunting rifle, I wouldn't be too concerned about barrel life. +/- 2000 rounds will last for years. [/QUOTE]
