[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 1767358, member: 109476"] I have been shooting the 6.5-06 for years. Same velocity as the PRC except brass is significantly less expensive. Living here in Colorado I hunt elk regularly & have no problem taking them using the Barne's mono bullets. Way back when I was younger I used larger cal's with heavier bullets , but have found that the 6.5's take elk cleanly. Shooting the Barnes 120gr TSX/TTSX on my range to a max of 522yds , no problem. I drive the 120 TSX to 3277 out of my 24" 1/8 twist Bbl. using IMR-4350 powder. Very reasonable recoil & definitely flat shooting. [/QUOTE]
