Why 6.5CM over 6.5PRC if you reload?

[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 1724127, member: 61747"] If you are not going to shoot comp I'd run the PRC. If shooting comp creedmoor or a 6mm variant. You can reduce load the PRC but keep in mind you may reduce powder fill rate to the point the ammo is not consistent and accurate. For larger bodied game the PRC is decent choice for sure if you are trying to stick with a short action. I have the creed, prc, and several 6.5-284's. I was not ever planning to going away from the 6.5-284 until I decided to build a switch barrel rifle based off the bighorn tl3 so I am giving the PRC a chance. So far it seems to be doing about what it is claimed to do. In the end, I would have ZERO issue buying a creed for deer inside 400, as you stated. Easy to find ammo, easy on barrels, low recoil, short action, accurate, fun to shoot. If you desire more horsepower, harder hitting, and possibly extend the ranges or go after larger game, the short action magnums are excellent choices. [/QUOTE]
