Thinking of switching

[dougaldy]

Hello,
I live in CA and currently hunt with a 7mm Rem Mag. Lately, I've been considering making the switch to a 6.5 PRC. Have any of your guys made a similar switch and if so, are you glad you did?

Owned several different 7's and tried the 6.5PRC, and would not go back to any of them after using the 6.5. IMO, the 6.5PRC is probably the best all-around cartridge for folks looking for manageable recoil, high probability of spotting their shots, flat shooting, and still not sold on going to smaller calibers.

My philosophy is if it's not broke why fix it. Unless you have specific reasons like a lighter gun, less recoil, etc.

Depends on any future hunts. I've hunted many states but after living in AK I decided the 7mag was the only hunting rifle I needed. The velocity and bullet options are good enough for my needs.
