6.5 PRC ammo

[bmac]

I bought 200 rounds when I picked up my APR custom and figured I would reload once used if I can find factory.

I bought 100 of the 143 ELDX when I bought mine last week. ADG isn’t slated to make more brass for 6.5PRC until November, so I will be reloading the Hornady stuff after I shoot through it.

I need some more brass for sure. I saw that Midway shows Nosler 6.5 PRC brass will becoming available. I'm hoping some ADG or the Nosler stuff comes available pretty soon.

Here is some ladder testing I have done thus far.

What app are you using for your data? Looks good.

I did it all on spreadsheet or xcel to be specific. I did not use an app just researched on YouTube, and learned to make one from scratch. I just made another one, will post it up. This is a ladder test I did to max load. Just takes some trial and error thru excel, but once you get how it works its a breeze.

Found 2 boxes of 143 ELDX at Academy the other day.

Not sure where you are located but I was at Fehners in Gonzales yesterday and they had a good bit of 6.5 prc ammo.
Actually was surprised to see that much of it. I guess it caught on as a round

Don't give our secret away. Brandon and Stephanie do a great job and I'm so glad to have such a nice gun store and feed store to shop at.

Same here. They had the eldx and eldm. 6.5prc isn’t one of the calibers that people are hoarding yet.


I think the issue is Hornady wasn’t ready to meet the demand of all the gun makers bringing the prc to market. It’s gotten fairly popular in the last year.

Great job. I just gave up on apps when my hone crashed and I lost 4 years worth load work ups because I thought it backed up to the cloud....

If you care to share what you have done I would appreciate it and offer any additions I thought would be helpful m

Sure, let me know what you would like to know. I will answer any question about excel you guys have.

Well ive got one 6.5 PRC and one 300 PRC on the way so im going to need them to pick up the reloading side.

With all these heavy for caliber bullets i may need to jump to the 300 sherman magnum but will need PRC brass to make it.


Anyone else find the ELDX bullets lacking? Didnt have great luck in the creedmoor and did the ELDM and it did ok but at higher speed and twist i heard they like to blow up down range. Trying 140gr bergers in my M18 Mauser

Heads Up, Custom Reloads of Dallas, Chad is not taking orders now, he's covered up trying to catch up.

This is what is keeping the old calibers alive re: 7mm Mag, .300 Win Mag. Hornady has jumped out with a couple great new cartridges but can't keep up with ammo/components, neither can the brass, primer, powder, bullet, makers.

This is keeping me from building a .300 PRC, leaning towards the old .300 Winny

Anybody have any 140gr Accubonds they'd let go?

I'm trying not to have to go through load development before a hunt on October 9th. Unreal how sold out the 6.5PRC is other than some Hornady here or there. I've tried every site I can think of and nothing is in stock.

I feel your pain, I have been on the hunt for 140 accubonds myself. Just used up my last 10 on reloads this week. They are no where to be found, not even locally in shops. I have a bought a couple boxs of choice ammunition in the 140 grain accubonds and they shoot really good. They are in stock on their site at this time, if all else fails.
