[QUOTE="Incestagater, post: 1679997, member: 109153"] I have a Christensen Arms, Ridge Line 6.5 PRC, and I'm extremely pleased with. It has a pretty tight chamber so even new brass has to be FL sized. I find that to be the case with Hornady brass and two other brands. I also have to trim a couple the length to get them to chamber. If you plan on shooting factory, I've not experienced anything negative with the two factory loads Hornady makes, 143 ELD-X or the 147 Match. Both chamber fine and shoot ok. Neither of them group at 100 yards as well as the Hornady 120 grain GMX bullets do. Another great load this rifle likes is the 140 grain Berger bullets. I bought my PRC new for $1875.00, plus tax. Felt like it was a fair price for the rifle. I like the fiber carbon barrel. I have two other rifles with the same barrel and have been pleased with their performance. I also have a custom built 6.5 CM with the carbon fiber barrel. I guess my preference is the PRC at this time over the CM, but both rifles have a place of their own, in my opinion. Hope you make the decision you're happy with later. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
