[QUOTE="H82bogey, post: 311758, member: 1372"] I also vote for the 6.5 prc. I bought one a year ago and have been nothing but impressed and compared to the 7mm, if you are shooting an equal weight bullet, the 6.5 prc will be faster after 250 yards because it has less drag. So you can get a cartridge that will shoot great at distance, carry energy and not give your shoulder such a thump. As far as ammo goes, I don't seem to have a problem getting it. Yes it gets sold out quick, but in just the last month, I have picked up plenty to last me for awhile. For a scope, I would look at the Leupold vx5 hd with fire dot reticle. Price sits right at $1k, and is really a very fine optic for the price. [/QUOTE]
