The 6.5 Precision Rifle Cartridge (PRC) is one of the newest cartridges from a major manufacturer, introduced by Hornady in 2017. Based on Hornady's .375 Ruger/Ruger Compact Magnum unbelted case, the 6.5 PRC requires a .532-inch bolt face, same as standard belted magnums. With a 2.030-inch case it can be housed in short bolt actions, and case length allows use of long-for-caliber 6.5mm bullets. Obviously it trades on the success of the 6.5mm Creedmoor, and also on the renewed interest in the ranging abilities of the 6.5mm (.264-inch) bullet diameter. Interestingly, ballistics are similar to the old .264 Win Mag introduced back in 1958 with a 140-grain bullet at almost 3000 fps It is thus faster than the Creedmoor and .260 Rem, but much slower than new super-fast 6.5mms like the 26 Nosler and 6.5-300 Weatherby Mag With its modern case design it is seems almost certain to find favor with the growing number of long-range shooters!
