Note the title of this thread is 6.5 PRC and 7mm PRC, not vs. That's because I'm hoping to avoid the typical immature online pissing contest between catridge fanboys. With that out of the way...
The question rattling around my mind is whether those who have both 6.5 PRC and 7mm PRC consider it much of a leap from one to the other. Though just a half-mil difference, certainly the bullet weights are higher for the 7, but what about real-world hunting experience? Is the 7 a true game changer compared to the 6.5 or is it just one of those psychological "more is better" propositions? Seemingly, for the great majority of game south of Alaska the 7's higher bullet weight advantage doesn't seem that much of an advantage, but I have no real-world experience to know so hoping others here can share their actual experience between the two. Thanks.
