Yeah if i were to go again i would buy a factory 6.5x55 (or maybe a 7mm08) chopped and threaded at 20". Cheaper, easier and would do everything i needed it to while having the larger supply of factory and reloading components.
Also less recoil than the 6.5PRC for spotting your impacts at range with the same weight rifle.
Still i'm loving this 6.5PRC rifle though!
