- Testing using the Hornady 140gr BTHP match, and Vihtavuori n560 in Hornady brass with CCI#34 primers. Testing is completed in my 24" Bergara B-14 HMR with an Athlon Ares BTR 4.5x27x50 optic. Testing completed at 100yds.
Thanks for the video, N560 is about all I can find for 6.5prc at the moment. I have Hornady 140 and 147 grain bullets and it's promising to see your results.
Your 56;9 looks like a winner. BTW your videos are looking much better without the pre-video things you had in the beginning. Your videos as a whole have improved greatly. Too bad the Chronograph was not working, but good video anyway.
Props to the rooster
I see you're struggling a bit with recoil management. I suggest Erik Cortina's EC Tunerbrake.
It works great on my Bergara Premier Pro 6.5PRC as well as tuning it to my loads to find my node.Good luck
Thanks for the video on the 6.5 PRC using VV560. I am working up some test loads using VV560 and 143 gr ELD-X test loads. Please share any velocity and charge data you have for VV560 as I would love to see it. Thanks for the great video.
Morning Rob!
Area 419 hellfire muzzle brake best on the market
The Vihtavuori website doesn't show any data for the 6.5 PRC. Can I ask where you got your data?
RIP Raymond the Rooster.
I've tried many muzzle brakes and I've settled done one Ross muzzle brakes!! The prc my son owns has a ross and the son says his ar .223 kicks harder.
Hi Rob , great channel. Hey question for you. I bought a 6.5 PRC rifle a few weeks ago and I have looked at SO many sites and I can’t find any brass, dies or slugs. I am about to pull my hair out on this. I saw a few weeks ago how inventories went from poor to almost non existent. Do you reckon that’s my problem or is this just a very hard caliber to find reloading supplies for? I can’t even find a few boxes of factory rounds either...... never had this problem before. Oh well, any suggestions or opinions would be greatly appreciated! Cheers
Components are scarce in general right now. I have been able to snag some prc brass now online. Monitoring forums Facebook groups and discord channels are pretty much the only way to find things. Brass for the prc comes in stock almost weekly online, but sells out within minutes. There is a prc Facebook page and Johnnys Reloading Bench has a discord channel that has been very helpful finding components. Keep your eyes peeled and credit card ready and you will find some.
@@RobsReloading 10.4. Oh I thought I heard someone say a few weeks ago that there was another name for 6.5 prc. But I can’t remember what they said it was. Have you heard this? Wondering if maybe I have missed something on that front.
@@freeandcriticalthinker4431 no, 6.5 prc is 6.5 prc. The 6.5 saum is similar but not the same cartridge. I would just join some online groups for reloading supplies. Stuff is coming in stock, it just doesn't last long. I snagged some adg brass last week, its being delivered tomorrow.
I have heard great things from that powder, good velocities and SDs. A good brake will make a huge difference. How far out do you have to shoot on your range? You could set a target out at 5 to 600 and get your drop? I'm sure you know that. Have a Merry Christmas....especially if your Labradar shows up.
Yes in the winter I can shoot out to about 650yds. I do plan in the next month or so to get out to a 1k plus range to stretch the prc out a bit. Will be nice to start getting consistent and reliable velocity data.
@@RobsReloading Rob how did it turn out at 1000'yds?
Its impact point probably isnt odd, Its most likely barrel harmonics. Or, maybe its the way it is recoiling. The "uncomfortable" chair could be changing your body position causing a different effect when it recoils.
Thats a good point. I have since built a new chair the appropriate height. Will see if that stabilizes the poi!
@@RobsReloading barrel harmonics will change the impact point too. Ive seen my vary in elevation up to an inch with just a half grain change in powder. Ive even had faster loads impact lower than the slower in the test.
have you data for N570? Thank you from Spain
Hi rob why is the scope so high off the barrel
That scope mount was only temporary. The scope and mount came straight off my AR. Check out my more recent videos with this rifle.
One more test with a brake and you look to be dialed in.
That camera would be toast with a brake.
9,000 fps. Lol.
Yeah, when you see 9k fps and don't blow up you know there is an error somewhere!
Should remove the sling studs when shooting off your bag.
Great video but dang your scope is HIGH
