[QUOTE="SteveBurton, post: 1759921, member: 59541"] Don't rule out a 6.5 PRC. I recently bought a Ridgeline because I did not have time to have a rifle built before my Coues hunt. Recoil with the brake is minimal and I can call my shots at 300 yards. I'm getting 3/4 MOA with Hornady ammo. Bought that due to time also and will use brass for handloads. Shot a nice buck at 630 yards. He went 10 yards and piled up. The Hornady 143 ELD-X are running 2970 out of my barrel after 60 rounds. I know you are going to build a rifle for your wife and probably handload but just throwing out some info for you. I believe this round is here to stay with the factory support for rifles and ammo.
