[QUOTE="Ga6570, post: 2085071, member: 108782"] My 6.5 PRC is a factory Browning XBolt HCLR 26” barrel. I had similar velocity results and sentiments until about 80 rounds then the velocity picked up. (I was also frustrated until that point.) now I’ve got a load to match factory ammo velocities and very happy with it, as I get right about 3000fps or just over with the 143 eldx. The hand loads I’m using 4831 powder, I had it on hand and it surprised me! I’m well below Max data and no pressure issues. so my suggestion is like others - keep shooting and I feel you will find the velocity increase within the next 100. [/QUOTE]
