[QUOTE="CMP70306, post: 2662394, member: 36999"] So I have an 18” 6.5 PRC, Below are some of the loads that I have personally tested in two carbon Six barrels. 130gr Berger OTM - 2980 fps with 54.5gr H4350 - fine in one rifle, 3150 and unsafe in another. 123gr Absolute Hammer - 3170 fps with 61.3gr N560, top end, shows pressure in once fired laupua but not with new brass so it needs a rework. 109gr Absolute Hammer - 3360 fps with 59.5gr H4350 - HOT LOAD but it was a first test load, will be backing down below 59gr for actual use. Im thinking the one Carbon 6 barrel has an issue and needs a finish reamer run in it as I had the same issue with the other barrel. I’m going to send it back after the season cause I don’t have enough time now. [/QUOTE]
