Thread: 6.5prc

This’ll make me sound like an old fella and I suppose I am getting old to be honest but my first rifle while at college was an old Mauser in 6.5x55 with the high rings so you could see through the iron sights or the scope depending on where you held your head. My best mate had a 7x57 , and we used to only buy Norma ammo from our local sports store as the European ammo was always significantly faster than the American loaded ammo loaded for European cartridges. I’m thinking this probably hasn’t changed hence the 200fps slower velocities than stated on box , the Norma certainly shoots fantastically so no complaints with that but fps is well down as confirmed by outdoor lad. Also nice to know my chrony is working ok. I’m betting if I can find a box of Hornady ammo it’ll be going way faster, will keep you all posted.
