[QUOTE="frostop, post: 2732479, member: 22611"] The thought behind the 6.5prc for me was this, I purchased a used TC Encore which had a 25.06 barrel that shot poorly so I wanted to replace it. When I went looking for components or even loaded ammo locally in .280ackley or even 270win, the choices were dismal. The 6.5prc is very close in performance, and again Hornady has done a good job in promoting and therefore there is good support for that round in the sporting goods stores. I am a fan of Norma brass as oppose to Hornady and luckily the Norma 6.5prc bondstrike 143's shoot sub moa with the little that I have shot so far. That all being said if I could find some of Federal's 135 terminal ascent's I would try them and hopefully crank them up over 3000. [/QUOTE]
