Thread: 6.5PRC

For those interested I got to shoot the Sako 85 that was fitted with a Tikka 6.5 PRC barrel today.
First I fired the Hornady factory 143 eldx load to get the brass.
Average speed was 2716fps this is from a 20" barrel, i shot home from the range and then loaded 2 groups of 5 with Superproformance powder and 143 eldx first load 2881 SD 16.6 next lot 2927 SD 16.1 getting warm.
So only a slight advantage over the .260 same barrel length 2749fps.
The first group of the PRC shot the best so I'll load the 20 cases I have and go and shoot something soon.
