Wow. This thread made my day. In the end, even being a handloader, if there's a factory cartridge that I can buy brass for, load and shoot, and a wildcat that I have to form and use some voodoo in determining the load, which one do you think I'm going to choose? Pretty simple. Your SLR has about as much to do with the 6.5 PRC as how well the Cavaliers would match up against the Yankees.
