New PRS build

[Rob01]

With a 26" barrel you can get the 147s close to 2800fps. I have them going 2820fps in my 27". That's with H4350. With RL26 people are getting well over 2800fps.

What is the velocity of your load now?

2600

Leaving some velocity on the table but if it works for you then that's all that counts.

Actually the 6.5 Creedmoor was based off of the 30TC cartridge.

.22-250 Remington is a necked down 250 Savage.

As Rob01 said, The 6.5CM's parent case is the 30TC


Nice rifles, BTW.

Awesome build I really love the Feel and look of the MPA chassis. Really want one, need to decide on buying another savage dropping it in, custom action barrel etc or just like a Howa Barreled Action

Go custom action. No offense to OP but if you're serious about PRS, a Savage action is just going to frustrate you and hold you back. I shot two matches with my savage before I went all in and found a used PRS rifle with a Surgeon 591 for a decent price. You're running the bolt enough with the rifle sitting in awkward positions that the heavy bolt lift on a savage will become a real hindrance. Been there, done that.
