6.5 PRC comes ALIVE with VV powder

[ndsportsman]

Loaded some 130gr Nosler Accubond , Lapua brass, 58.5 gr N565, CCI 200 primer, 20" barrel suppressed, velocity was 2903, 2908, 2905 fps, group measured .690", and haven't even tweaked much with seating depth. So far very pleased with the results.

Same, 58.5 N565 under the 156 EOL got me 2,825 from my 20" barrel with great accuracy. Gonna try some with the 215M primer also, see if that's better than the 210M.
If not I think I'll be rocking this next month in Wyoming.

All this is awesome to see. Just got my 6.5PRC 18" all together.

it shot factory 156's great for me laying in the rain trying to zero as fast as I could to try to get into the woods to chase elk on the wet side of wa.

It also shot the ELDX stuff great but had pressure signs right away, super hard bolt lift and ejector stamps, and one primer looked like it was 1 kernal of powder away from really letting go..... I already emailed hornady about it.

I am going to try 565, 560 and Grand with the 156's in Laupa new brass.
