[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 2454243, member: 11960"] There's a difference between a gun that works to shoot 1 mile and a gun that works WELL to shoot one mile. I've shot an 18" specialty pistol in 284 Win loaded with 168gr VLDs at 1 mile quite a bit. It[B] worked[/B] when the conditions were good and I could make pretty consistent hits on a 1 MOA gong. When conditions started to change I'd use a 30" barreled 7mm RUM shooting the old 200gr Wildcat bullets, and it [B]worked well[/B] at 1 mile under most conditions. When I was tired of playing around, it was time to move to a 338 SnipeTac with 300gr OTMs. That gun was [B]built for[/B] shooting 1 mile and beyond. The 6.5 PRC will absolutely work for shooting at 1 mile. It just won't work well. [/QUOTE]
