6.5 cal 130 grain hornady CX

[seven point]

Anyone load this bullet in 6.5PRC?
Just wondering results and maybe a baseline

I use it with RL26, good accuracy from my 24" Tikka CTR

Would you use it on elk or moose?
I currently use 156 bergers but have had a couple failures

Absolutely, it'd be a like a hot knife through butter

Have you messed with much? Find them sensitive to seating depth?

I just run them 50 off like a Barnes. I wouldn't go any closer to lands than that

Another Bullet used a LOT is the Barnes 127 LRX . Look at those too .
I’m running them in my 6.5 CM and 6.5 PRC .

Thanks Jim, I've read up on them too. Will start with the 130's since I bought a box already and see how it goes

Hey Jim, Just came across your hijacked thread about same bullets. Not alot of definitive answers there either lol.
