  • 6.5 PRC

6.5 PRC ammo comes in bullet weights of 130 to 147 grain. All are popular and commercially available, but for long distance shooting, which the 6.5 PRC was designed for, you can’t beat the power of the 147 grain which is a favorite of long-range shooters. Performance ballistics for the 130, 143 and 147 grain loads are found in the following table.
