New 6.5 PRC Build

[FLHunter87]

I decided to build a new rifle and splurge but still saving money on completely semi custom/almost custom build. For the price point, I think I did pretty well compared to what I have sourced estimates from other companies that build that were 2.5k-3.5k more for the same type of setup. Have about a month wait. I currently have a Browning X Bolt Pro in 6.5 PRC as well and that’s why I went with 6.5 PRC again. I already have what I need and really don’t need anything more as it can handle everything needed. The company I work for bought me this(through stock purchase/selling, not actually bought it for me personally). Wife gave me the green light so no harm no foul either.

Maybe. I don’t have the rifle, it is starting to be built. It will look like this for the most part.

Fair. Congrats on your new rifle. Sounds like a good one

I think so as well. At least I better be lol. Total weight with scope will be around 9 lbs and with silencer more near 10lb mark, which isn’t really bad at all in my opinion. If I can hit the 2900 fps or even more and easy sub moa (as what the guarantee is), I will definitely be a happy camper with the set up. Using the 147 ELDM it should be possible. With my 24” barrel I have now I’m getting 2840 and I’m still around 2g below book max. So a 26” barrel with the same load should be pretty close possibly. I don’t know. But overall excited for sure.
