[QUOTE="Catbrain, post: 2910523, member: 127536"] Im just beginning long range. Only shot to 600 with 308. I think the 6.5 creed is perfect for a starting caliber. I am still exploring how far I can shoot here.... I may have access to 1000 acres in the mountains here that adjoins my 30. Maybe later the PRC cases will become cheaper and I will have "gotten the feel" of the 6.5 C by then. Was thinking of coyotes as targets of opportunity to infinity (:cool: ) and deer to maybe 300. or 200. Seems like the 6.5C is like the 22lr of long range calibers. "Boy's first sniper round" :) Just ordered an Arken 5-25 x 56 scope. That will be transplanted to it later on once its built. It will go on the 308 savage 10FP for now. looks like a fine scope. especially for low$$$$. [/QUOTE]
