[QUOTE="Southern Hunter, post: 3056388, member: 129093"] Good Day, I'm 71 years old and want to build a 6.5 PRC rifle for deer hunting. My shooting range is from 100 to 300 yards. I have several custom rifles in 25.06, 30.06 and a .264 Jarrett, all are great rifles but getting a little heavy. I have read several articles about the 6.5 PRC and Defiance-Proof Research Pre-Fit barrel. I would like to build a 6.5 PRC but I'm not sure which way to go. 22-inch or 24-inch barrel, pre-fit barrel or have a barrel blank chambered into a 6.5 PRC. Listed below are the rifle components I have selected for this rifle build. Just was wondering if any of you have any suggestions or different components. Building a hunting rifle is a little out of my league. Thank you for your time and thoughts! Long Range Hunting Rifle 6.5 PRC Proof Research Carbon Fiber Sendero (22-inch or 24-inch barrel) Defiance Ruckus GA Hunter Action – XM Action Length Trigger Tech - Remington 700 Special Trigger Hawkins Precision M5 Detachable Bottom Metal and Medium Action 3 round Magazine AG Adjustable Chalk Branch Rifle Stock – Carbon Fiber [/QUOTE]
