[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1855182, member: 69478"] A 20” barreled 6.5 PRC should equal the velocity and ballistics of a 24-26” 6.5 Creedmoor. So expect 140s in the 2800FPS range. This is plenty to take deer sized game out to your 650 yard goal. A standard 1-8 twist will work well with your common cup n core bullets like Hornady, Berger, Sierra, and Nosler. A monolithic bullet like a Barnes or Hammer may require a 1-7 or 1-7.5 twist barrel if you decide to shoot them in the heaviest weights. [/QUOTE]
