[QUOTE="Jack300WSM, post: 2971295, member: 107882"] Sliced bread in the Christensen. 6.5PRC in the Rem 700. Happy with both. Both hold 1/2” or better all day @100yds. I’ve settled on 185 VLDH in the wsm with no issues in mag utilizing .007” off lands. So she’s good for shooting well past my capabilities. The PRC I did have bolt face work done dual ejectors and M16 extractor installed to help with extraction as the standard rem setup wouldn’t cut it. Ran into issues with 140’s trying to load to mag length. Shoots awesome single shot though. I’ve since changed to 127g Barnes LRX seated to mag length @3020fps so should be good from 0-550yds to keep it above that 1900fps range I need. Just something to think about when using a short action. [/QUOTE]
