6.5 prc
The .260 Remington (also known as 6.5-08 A-Square) cartridge was introduced by Remington in 1997. Many wildcat cartridges based on the .308 Winchester case had existed for years before Remington standardized this round. Although loaded to higher pressures, the ballistics of this cartridge are basically similar to the 6.5×55mm when bullet weights do not exceed 140 grains. When loaded with heavier bullets, the 6.5×55mm is capable of greater velocity. Due to its shorter overall length the .260 Remington can be chambered in a shorter length action than the 6.5×55mm.
Because 6.5 mm (.264") bullets have relatively high ballistic coefficients, the .260 Remington has seen success in rifle competition including bench rest, metallic silhouette, and long range. It is capable of duplicating the trajectory of the .300 Winchester Magnum, while generating significantly lower recoil. Also, converting a rifle chambered for the .308 Winchester (or any of its offspring, such as the .243 Winchester, 7mm-08 Remington, .358 Winchester or .338 Federal) to .260 Remington generally requires little more than a simple barrel change.
Excellent condition, not a mark or blemish to be found. Great shooting rifle that shoots 1/2" MOA with 127 LRX and well under an inch with just about everything. Price is for rifle and the 30mm med height talley rings. Looking for $1700, meet at Everett area FFL.
Ive been working on getting this rifle ready to go and its showing a lot of promise. I really don't want to sell it but I need the money. I have only done the break in procedure with 30 rounds, so you can go straight to shooting. No scratches or marks, other than slight paint rub where the...
I’ve put maybe 30 rounds through this rifle. The longest distance was 824 yards. The factory break is very effective and makes it a pleasure to shoot. Scope and bipod are not included but the factory 20 MOA base is. I can meet in the Portland area at the FFL of your choosing. I will split the...
I’m getting into loading 6.5 prc. I have magpro powder to use along with a wide selection of primers. I’m at a loss with picking out the proper set of dies.
Do I go with bushing dies?
Should I full length resize each time?

Would love to buy or trade for some H1000 powder along with components and supplies to reload 6.5 PRC. I have primers, ammo, and cash to give in return. Thank you
I have 100 rounds of factory 6.5 prc 143eld-x for trade. My rifle loves the 147s and doesn't like the 143 as much. Just looking to trade because if I sell them I'd be asking for enough to pay the ridiculous prices they are asking for them. Please pm with offers.

Two boxes of Hornady 6.5 PRC ELD-X 143gr available. Everything is hard to get and expensive so I would prefer to trade one box for one brick (1000) primers, CCI 450 or BR4. Otherwise $85 per box.
