16.5 inch 6.5 PRC

[Wyo_Jeeper]

Just picked up my latest. 16.5 inch Proof barrel 6.5 PRC in an MDT HNT chassis. Whole goal was to have as short a package as possible with the suppressor (once the approval comes through) for a handy/dandy blood and guts rifle. First 12 shots through it show good promise, and according to the chronograph I'm still going to have 2,000 FPS at 500 yards. I'm looking forward to putting more trigger time on this thing on the lead up to hunting season this year. Especially once the suppressor clears.



Hornady Precision Hunter factory loads with 143 ELD-X's

Takes all kinds to make the world go around. This was built for a specific use case which it will be more than capable of filling.

What's the total weight pre-suppressor? And what can are you getting? Looks like a pretty sweet setup.

Total weight as it sits is 8 pounds 1 ounce according to the kitchen scale.

And what can are you getting?

Silencer Co Harvester. SiCo and Gunwerks were the only two I talked to that were willing to say they would hold up to this barrel length in a PRC. I never contacted Thunderbeast simply because I couldn’t find any of their cans in stock.
