Hopefully someone makes some factory ammo to revive the ol 6.5RM. Ballistically, she's too good to die

6.5 PRC done the hard way?

Where are you guys buying your 6.5 PRC brass? Is it just Hornady available?

 

[todbartell]

Hornady, Bertram, ADG, Gunwerks, soon to be Alpha Munitions

Thanks.
That 6.5 PRC Hornady brass is more expensive than I would have figured. 85-90$/50

The 6.5 RM was only $50/50... and it came with a free belt...

 

[Buckmastr]

But I think he only had 4000 pieces or something like that. Barely enough to get by

X Reload was selling it for about $70 IIRC.


Hornady brass for 7RM, 300WM runs around $85 too. 375 Ruger in the $75-85 range too. More common stuff like 6.5 Creed, 270 and 3006 runs about $65 while larger less popular cartridges like 300 RUM are $100. I don't think they make any 6.5 RM brass so difficult to compare that.

Remington 7mm Mag brass is 52$/50. Hornady is expensive but if you can get it, great!

Key word had. They were on the EE for a over month last year.

So there's no 6.5mm Rem Mag brass available? Bummer
