[QUOTE="Pro2A, post: 1947804, member: 17889"] I have the M18 in 6.5PRC 24.4" at $479 (other calibers at $399). Bought it just to play with the 6.5PRC in an inexpensive hunting rifle before deciding whether to do that cartridge in a Barrel Makers Kit for one of my MRADs.. Mounted a Leupold Mark 4 6.5-20x50 FFP TS-60MOA reticle. As I recall, it uses the Rem700 LA bases. It is not the CRF Mauser action. Have only shot at 100y out the back door range; less than 50 rounds. Haven't extended range yet. Early experience it easily shoots ~.75MOA with factory ammo at 100y prone/pack. Having an old fart morning. I'm embarrassed to admit I can't for the life of me recall which ammo or Labradar velocities....maybe 147gr ELD??? And, I'm not at the lodge to check. It will be a very acceptable hunting rifle, especially for the cost. I can explore the 6.5PRC, beat it around, let the younguns take her out, and not have much at risk whatever it encounters.
