Experience the Best in Long-Range Shooting

The 6.5 Precision Rifle Cartridge (PRC) is one of the most accurate cartridges on the market. Therefore, bolt-action rifles chambered for it should be designed to get the most performance from it.

From Mossberg Patriots to Browning X-Bolts, our collection features iconic brands known for their long-range weapons. Each of our 6.5 PRC rifles is built with both tried-and-true and cutting-edge features to improve accuracy: threaded barrels, advanced polymer stocks, user-adjustable triggers, muzzle brakes, and more. With so many options, you have the opportunity to choose the perfect rifle for you with the features that meet your needs.

6.5 PRC is a caliber that works for both hunting and target shooting. However, it can't bring down game larger than deer. We recommend going with something like our 7mm PRC rifles for more variety in the game you can take down. But with its manageable recoil, longer barrel life, and lighter weight, this cartridge allows 6.5 PRC rifles to dominate in competitive long-range shooting.

Frequently Asked Questions

When was the 6.5 PRC invented?

Hornady began developing the 6.5 PRC in 2013, but it wasn't until 2018 that it was finally released. It followed Hornady's 6.5 Creedmoor, a cartridge made for the AR-15 designed for down-range performance and low recoil. The 6.5 PRC is very similar but was designed for bolt-action rifles and comes with a mild improvement in velocity. It was also based on the obscure .300 Ruger Compact Magnum cartridge.

What is the effective range of your rifles chambered for 6.5 PRC for sale?

6.5 PRC rifles have an effective range of around 1000 yards. However, if you are hunting, we recommend being very aware of your hunting conditions before trying to hit game from that far away. You want to be able to secure an ethical harvest; with a smaller bullet like the 6.5 PRC, being slightly off will only wound your target.

Which is better, 7mm PRC or 6.5 PRC?

It depends on your use case. With a larger bullet and a bit more firepower, 7mm PRC can take down larger game that 6.5 PRC cartridges can't, like elk and moose. However, due to its lower recoil and lightweight design, 6.5 PRC rifles have the advantage in competitive long-range target shooting.
