    6.5 PRC

    Has anyone tried the 156gr Berger? Curious to see how it performs. Having a hard time finding Nosler BT around here.

    7mmRM - 140gr Ballistic Tip

    Loaded up some H4831 and RL26. Once the weather gets a bit warmer (yeah, doesn't happens too much in Dec), I'll get out to the range and see how they perform.

    Looks fantastic. Hope they bring back the .450 Marlin.

    6.5 PRC

    Thanks. Hit her at about 50yds and complete pass through with entry and exit holes about the size of a quarter. Closer than I would have liked, but couldn't pass up the chance.

    6.5 PRC

    Was out yesterday and dropped a nice mature whitetail doe. Only had factory 147 ammo, but did the job.

    I'm putting a Burris E1 4.5-14x42 on it. My eyes aren't what they used to be ;)

    Got some RL26 and 147gr ELD-M bullets. Will see how they perform. Also have some factory Hornady ammo with the 147gr. Oh, and here is the rifle.

    6.5 PRC

    Is anyone currently loading for this round? Just picked one up, and now starting to get components to do some reloading and was wondering what folks have tried with good success. Powder, bullets etc. Just as a starting reference. I have RL26 and N565. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bore guide

    Would anyone happen to know what Possum Hollow bore guide fits the Remington 783? Specifically in 6.5 Creedmoor.

    257 Wby

    Got out to the range and ran the load over the chrono. Averaged 3509fps. That’s almost exactly what Barnes lists for the load in their data using a 24” barrel.

    Vanguard S2 in 25-06 with 75grn Vmax (range day)

    Very nice! I used to have an S2 in .25/06 and was a tack driver. Love the S2’s.

    1895M XLR

    Yes, I think I will go with the handload. As DrMike mentioned, something about "rolling your own" makes the hunt that much more special.

    1895M XLR

    Thanks. I’m on the fence if I want to use the factory ammo or the handload for this season. Decisions decisions...
