Before you build a trendy Dasher, 6BRA, 6.5 PRC.... the PRS finale was just won with a 6 creedmoor

Do you happen to know the Phoenix Eye?
If you are not interested why come here and read the thread? Then start talking trash? Just to be an epic douchehole? Fucking loser.
I'm sorry how dare anybody come to the house of PRS and insult the sport oh wait this isn't the house of PRS. Nevermind guess I'm not out of line.
I guess all you can do is Snow Flake bitch and throw insults huh.
Deal with it waiting in line all weekend to shoot sucks.

I'm not interested in Prs. And when I'm out hunting the snowflakes bother me because I'm a little whiny bitch. Damn, damn, damn little frickin snowflakes. Oh shit here another coyote...boom.
How are your Dim Mak skills?
What are you talking about the threads about the caliber used by the winner which isn't even accurate information.
I didn't talk any trash it was a light ribbing at most which is VERY consistent with acceptable local etiquette here. Some guys are just so damn sensitive.
I'm just happy this thread has stayed on topic discussing trendy chamberings and the PRS finale
Couldn't prove your point and now you're in the fatal position and beginning to cry eh.

I want to argue about timezones. My timezone is the best one. Mountain time zone!
You're a chump if you live anywhere else! MOUNTAIN TIME OR BUST!

The thread title is actually accurate info. I was trying to start some shit (which seems to have worked) by posting Phil’s pic of the 6.5prime boxes he used to carry his 6cm 115dtac loads. Frank blew my cover and this thread has become a shitshow.
Try a prs/NRL match. Chances are you will have fun and get your ass handed to you.
Last year it was won with a 6.5x47. It's more Indian than arrow.
Yep. Show up with a 6mm flavor running a high BC 105-115 2900-3100fps or a 6.5mm running a high BC 130-140+ running 2700-2900fps with a accurate consistent load like everyone and their brother runs and the chambering isn't going to be the reason that anyone won or lost. The winner will be the one who made the fewest mistakes every time.
Fuck your ranch, if you even have one.
If he doesn't have a ranch, I highly recommend a bottle of ranch dressing instead.
wow,
this is still going, I would have put him on ignore and been gone last night

Lol, wouldn't this be the most epic thread if Phil was posting under the name roamin? Ultimate trolling.
This thread is getting harder and harder to fap to.

Don’t remember the last time I read every post in a thread. Probably when Captain Phoenix Eye was around. Thanks for the laughs.
Can we get a better congrats to Phil thread started again? Hell I’d even take the beaten horse of caliber selection over this jerry springer gut pile.
Not until those rat bastards running this shit show fix my birthday.
Why don’t you just report them to LL?? I understand he is not doing anything tonite except cleaning his Desert Eagle?
Cheers, Sirhr
Possibly, that was my exact point. They're all new, just some are newer, and in the chase for a more effective cartridge, I would prefer the 6 BRA barrel life. Additionally, it's the shooter, not the round that makes the biggest difference.
Well, my 6mm BRA shoots like my 22LR rifle. I just got done with my fire forming and worked up a load over the weekend. Moving from a dasher to a bra without giving up the speed. The bra has my vote for a new prs tactical bolt rifle.
I wouldn’t argue against the shooter being the most important part of it all, but you have to admit that what makes a “more effective cartridge” is an objective target. To you, more effective just may mean decent barrel life and still get the job done with enough velocity. Others may think that more effective means being able to push at the edge of the speed limit while not having to buy a kit for the mag to make the round feed effectively. Some have no issue with barrel life if they have found a way to minimize its impact.
Just playing devil’s advocate here. I do not own a 6mm rifle. I have paid close attention though and have considered both the 6 bra and the 6 Creedmoor as a future choice. Sometimes is just comes down to making a personal choice as to what “you” are looking for at that point in time.
What you have to look at is the seeing your shots, the creedmoor will most likely cause you not to see your last shot.
The bra at least on my rifle does not kick anymore then my 22.
This is why I chose to build my first match rifle, at least, in straight BR instead of a hotter 6 (6Dasher, 6x47, 6Creed, etc.). Over the life of a barrel I save $525 (cost of a PVA Nucleus shouldered pre-fit) which equates to about 1,500 rounds of the ammo I'm loading. This means more practice since I know I'm not great right now. It also means less load development for a new barrel. I'm also able to use 10% less powder than most Dasher/BRA loads (30gr vs about 33gr) and at least 33% less powder than the Creedmoor and similar cartridges (30gr vs 40+gr). I get around 1,800 rounds per 8lb jug of powder compared to ~1,600 for a Dasher/BRA or 1,300 for a ~40gr load in a hotter 6.
The long and short of it is that it means I can afford to shoot more, and that's where I expect to see larger gains rather than chasing a couple tenths of wind hold right now. If I ever get to the point where I feel like the cartridge is holding me back (or if the barrel life of the BRA turns out to be similar to the BR) I'll go ahead and make the swap when this barrel goes, but for now I'll run what I've got, save some money, and practice as much as I can. The recoil thing for the 6mm cartridges is a non-issue to me, I got my start shooting the 6.5mm 147's at 2900 fps in an 11lb hunting rig so I learned a lot about managing recoil to see hits/misses (though being able to recoil with my current heavy gun is something I've seen benefits from).
I'm aware the other cartridges have ballistic advantages that I'm missing out on, but for me the trade off of increased practice time is far more valuable than the ballistic advantages. My money is better invested in a membership to a place like CRC and in sending more lead down downrange at the moment.
Seriously? I have shot .260 without a brake for years up until lately and see my impacts and misses just fine. 6 Creed would be cake. I see my impacts when shooting my .338 LM too, though admittedly not always while on barricades and loose supports.
Just leave now. Save us the headache of giving you some knowledge that apparently you were never taught.
Or MAYBE just MAYBE you will come in here and drop so much knowledge we will be blown away.
Eagerly waiting to be taught some of your much more experienced life lessons.
I don't disagree that the efficiency is relative to the target, but we were talking about a PRS win so I felt that was implied. I shoot .260 also, but after looking at and shooting the various 6mm's available, the 6 BRA is a better choice IMO. The OP alluded to a shooter no longer needing to chase cartridges and the 6 creedmoor would get it done, but for PRS match application I believe the BRA is more efficient in barrel life and powder with similar performance. BTW, I appreciate you rerouting this away from the shit show it was becoming;as this could still be a constructive post for people who want to learn something.
